The Mirror Lyrics

It's the middle of the night

She stares at the ceiling yet again

There's a storm in her eyes

She says she'll get better but doesn't know when

She lives in her own world

Full of grief and loss and doubt

She closes her eyes

Wondering what's this all about

Oh when I look in the mirror

I see this girl that I don't know

Whenever she hits her highs

She crashes right back down to low

She sees the mistake

And all the heartbreak

And wants to be left alone

After all that life has thrown at her

She feels as if she's better

On her own

Silence that's louder than thunder

She's drowning and can't come up for air

She needs a shoulder to lean on

But there's nobody there

These feelings are buried

Deep inside her heart

She tells them she's fine

But they'll never know it's just a lie

Oh when I look in the mirror

I see this girl that I don't know

Whenever she hits her highs

She crashes right back down to low

She sees the mistake

And all the heartbreak

And wants to be left alone

After all that life has thrown at her

She feels as if she's better

On her own

She knows, oh she knows

That she's worth so much more

But she feels as if she's so much less than

What her friends hope for

And she's scared, oh she's scared

Of the future that draws near

Will her friends all leave her here

Her friends she holds so dear

Oh when I look in the mirror

I see this girl that I don't know

Whenever she hits her highs

She crashes right back down to low

She sees the mistake

And all the heartbreak

And wants to be left alone

After all that life has thrown at her

She feels as if she's better

On her own
