paint a picture of your perfect self
put it high upon the pedestal
that's who you are
that's who you want to be
but this is the person
I never see.
the person you see in the mirror
is not the one that stands infront of me
the person in the mirror is kind, sincere,
the person I see cries a river from a word
the person in the mirror,
and the one standing here
should have a chat,
meet in the middle
cause i'm tired of coming out black and blue
over a simple word
