I look at my own reflection
The shining glass never broken
Old and worn, yet always shining
Shining as it shows myself, breaking.

I can't stop, I keep staring
Staring as everything is breaking
Everything but the shining glass
But I am nothing but a helpless lass

I stare at my own reflection
Hating at my cowardly action
Break the glass, my reflection scream
I could not for all I dream

And I stare, with hopeless despair
Enduring pains I couldn't bear
Let someone hear, for all I care
But burden's too great to share

Once again looking at the shining glass
Shining bright like a star that pass
The shining glass is left in this world
Shining eternal, but worn and old

Struggling to be whole
In this hellish hole
Fractured but not broke
And I rise and look

I was told to break the glass
But I am cowardly lass
Break it, I hear
Break free, I hear
