I hate you
Says the girl in the mirror
The image in glass
Getting clearer and clearer
Her ugly words
Hit hard inside
They make you
Want to leave and hide
But you can't
You stand enthralled in the mirror
The picture of ugly
Getting clearer and clearer
Everything seen
Is worse than before
All of it gross
Not even a size four
The girl isn't pretty
The girl in the mirror
Her ugliness
Only gets clearer and clearer
You watch each day
As she buries her sorrow
Starving and puking
Without a care for tomorrow
A fat image is seen
By the girl in the mirror
Her picture of you is
Getting clearer and clearer
Evil lurks in the calories
And exercise isn't enough
To go and start
Eating and stuff
And ugliest of all
The girl in the mirror
Her flaws and imperfections
Getting clearer and clearer
A glance over here
Where you try to hide
Will ruin your plans
For beauty outside
For all anyone sees
Is the girl in the mirror
The image of you
Getting clearer and clearer
And everyone knows
And nobody stops
All that you do
In hope of a swap
For you to go live
As the girl in the mirror
For the disease inside you
Is getting clearer and clearer.
