Mirror Mirror, standing big and tall. Tell me, am I cute enough to be a doll? With my hair up high in a ponytail of sorts, My smile lopsided, My teeth crooked from a recent fall. Mirror, am I cute enough to be a doll? Mirror Mirror, standing big and tall. Tell me, am I pretty enough to end grade six? My hair is straightened and my teeth have braces, There's gloss on my lips and a hand on my hip. Mirror, am I pretty enough to end grade six? Mirror Mirror, standing big and tall. Tell me, am I gorgeous enough to become a teen? There's makeup covering my face and a smile takes it's place, And now I can hide my feelings with one fake look. Mirror, am I gorgeous enough to become a teen? Mirror Mirror, standing big and tall. Tell me, am I worth enough to live through it all? No smile on my face and my bones show a bit, My knees tremble and my tears fall, Blood streaked thighs and I no longer stand tall. Mirror, am I worth enough to live through it all?
