I can smash the glass universe before it can haunt me again
Smash every one I see until they become extinct
But my reflection will sneak up on me in ponds and silver spoons
When I'm trying to walk or eat in peace it won't leave me alone

Or I can build myself strong enough so I won't easily break
For having an aesthetic flaw and not having an unrealistic face
I'll build myself stronger than that useless piece of glass
And recognize I'm worth more than just a piece of ***

Because my worth doesn't come from looking like a doll
And taking hours in the morning just to stand up tall
I have a job, I'm useful, loved, healthy, motivated, successful...
I'm good enough to know the glass universe is merely a mirror
