We need to learn to see ourselves
Through someone else's eyes
Because our vision is always skewed
And all mirrors tell are lies
The things we hate are always things
That other people love
A smile, a laugh, beautiful eyes,
Or simply the lack of
It seems we all take a vow:
If it's not discussed, it's not there
But everyone feels your pain
And to hold it in isn't fair
We need to learn to take compliments
And when we look in the mirror
Focus on things people love about us
It makes life so much easier
