There's a person that I want to be When I look in the mirror there's a face I should see But when I walk past the glass, and I stop and stare I get a good look at what's really there I see a face that is weary and streaked tears I see heavy eyes that are filled with fear I see a fake smile I have plastered on And the confidence I thought I had is gone I see this person and I want to look away To try my hardest to keep the truth at bay But I know I can't hide from reality And that person who broken, depressed, miserable out their mind, filled with regret, always upset, and angry all the time is me
