I stand in the mirror and I must ask Who am I? As I see it now I'm an upcoming young woman Dressed in white with the future laid out before her Finally commanding the respect I once craved But I listen to the music Our old songs And I remember when I was nothing more than a passenger Just trying to get to a destination And somewhere between here and now I changed From another emo gutter rat to a lady And for so long this is what I thought I wanted But the title of lady doesn't suit me at all So as I stand in the mirror it's not one reflection I see but two A put together lady in red And a thrasher in black And they both smile the same sick twisted way And I just wish it was easy to figure it out Who am I?

Who am I?
I stand in the mirror and I must ask Who am I? As I see it now I'm an upcoming young woman Dressed in white with the future laid out before her Finally commanding the respect I once craved But I listen to the music Our old songs And I remember when I was nothing more than a passenger Just trying to get to a destination And somewhere between here and now I changed From another emo gutter rat to a lady And for so long this is what I thought I wanted But the title of lady doesn't suit me at all So as I stand in the mirror it's not one reflection I see but two A put together lady in red And a thrasher in black And they both smile the same sick twisted way And I just wish it was easy to figure it out Who am I?
