Girl

When I look in the mirror,
Who do I see?
Who is that girl?
She isn't me.

Whoever she is,
She won't leave me alone.
She makes me want to learn,
All she's ever known.

She haunts my dreams at night.
My shadows in the day.
And the reason for all her pain,
She will never say.

When I look at my reflection,
I stare into her eyes.
Looking into their depths,
Where I can hear all her cries.

Her pain becomes my pain.
Her tears become my own.
And I finally realize,
Into one we both have grown.

So when I look in the mirror,
Who do I see?
Who is that girl?
She must be me.
