Hello, my reflective enemy Whispering to come see See how different I look from the rest Put my self-esteem to the test Look at my insecurities and flaws Mirrors tear me to shreds with vicious claws “Just look how big you are” “You’re never gonna go far” “You shouldn’t even try “Oh, boohoo don’t you dare cry” “Imagine what others think” “Get the suicide drink” Sleepless nights and a knife at hand blood appearing, I can’t take a stand Hide it, don’t let anyone know Just smile as sanity is let go But pleas fall on deaf ears For, even people who see, are blind to the tears In the end, it’s me and the mirror And my choice doesn’t become clearer Pulling me in My mind will always win Because this is a fight against me and my enemy The terrible mirrors who say to come see
