Look in the mirror and what do you see?
When I look in the mirror
I believe I see me.
I look past the glass of a simple reflection
and think to myself I was made for perfection.
Not looking at all the past and regret,
but the better times that I wont forget.
When I look in the mirror
I believe I see me.
I just look at myself straight to see eye to eye.
But somehow I see my past, and I want to cry.
When I look in the mirror
I believe I see me.
Ready to start all over, to forgive, and stand on my own two feet.
I will not let the past beat me, and win the ultimate defeat.
When I look in the mirror
I believe I see me.
But when the glass breaks and there is nothing left behind
I cant see me, but its you that keeps reflecting in my mind.
