In My Mirror

When I look in the mirror
All I can see
Is a young girl
That looks nothing like me.

The hurt in her eyes
Show the tears that she cries
The anger in her soul
Show the pain that she feels

This girl looks so distant
Surely she can't be me
She looks like she has nothing
Looks dead inside

I can tell from her frown
Her heart fails to beat the way it once did
She was left broken
With no hope and no dreams

I can see right into her world
It's all ruined
Nothing is the way it should be
Everything seems so neglected

Her lips fail to form a smile
Her eyes have mislaid their twinkle
Her cheeks have lost their colour
Her whole face looks so lifeless

Over time she's become numb
Been hurt so much
That now it seems to be routine
Doesn't know how to break free

She misses the way things used to be
Would do anything to change that night
But knows it's impossible
And that kills her every time

The memories serve as her life
That's all she lives for
And also that small chance
That he might want her again

She used to be so happy
When she was with him
Her heart skips a beat
When she sees him

But looking in this mirror
I can't see that happiness
Only the wreckage
Of a beautiful girl

She's fallen into a bottomless pit of emptiness
And doesn't know how to get out
She fails to see the point in her existence
If she isn't living by his side

All this I can tell
By looking in my mirror
That girl looks so unlike me
Maybe we're more alike than I first thought...
