I have many flaws you see
But none could ever compare
To how my eyes perceive myself;
A broken toy beyond repair

My greatest flaw-- it tops them all!--
Is that I'm never good enough
Not for my mother, nor for me
Nor for the boy that stole my love

And yet he says I'm always beautiful
He tells me I'm the only girl for him
But still I cannot bring myself
To believe a single word he's saying

I'm not sure if I'm doing this right
For all I know I could look like a fool
Hopping up and down, left to right
Dancing blindly in a chicken suit

                     ~ ~ ~

So I cover my eyes
                                                   There's daises and butterflies
And dream a happy scene
                                                              There's a quiet, bubbling stream
No longer am I here
                                                                              That reflects my image like a mirror
Instead I'm there
                                                                                                                             *One I cant bare
