She holds back her tears As she stares in the mirror- Seeing herself as everything she fears; Fat, ugly, an utter failure. He holds back his tears As he stares in the mirror- Seeing himself as everything he fears; Scrawny, ugly, an utter failure. Little do they know that Mirrors can lie, They don't show us what's truly inside. It reflects a human's want to try, Try be perfect in society's eyes.

Mirrors Can Lie
She holds back her tears As she stares in the mirror- Seeing herself as everything she fears; Fat, ugly, an utter failure. He holds back his tears As he stares in the mirror- Seeing himself as everything he fears; Scrawny, ugly, an utter failure. Little do they know that Mirrors can lie, They don't show us what's truly inside. It reflects a human's want to try, Try be perfect in society's eyes.
