mirror mirror, wont you show me?
the person that i want to be?
let me see all the ways
that i fail to live up to me
let me feel the utter distance
from the one i want to be
when i see my own reflection
let it bring the shame on me
hopes and dreams, lofty ideals
up against reality
bearing down on my back
let me feel the utter distance
from my own security
when i see my own reflection
feel the pressure mounting
to make an image of my self
shattering each facet
gotta buy neccessities
selling my humanity
feels so far away, the distance from my future self
feeling stuck in progress, no matter what i do
can a loner make the connections that they need?
someone please notice that i've got things to share
between who i am, and who i want to be
will i ever reach
the idealized vision that i've set for myself?
mirror mirror, wont you show me?
the person that i want to be?
let me see all the ways
that i need to live up to me
let me feel the utter distance
from the one i want to be
when i see my own reflection
let it be my reason to be
feels so far away, the distance from my future self
slowly making progress, every step that i take
will a loner make the connections that they need?
someone will notice that i've got things to share
feel the pressure mounting
to make an image of my self
shattering each facet
when i have neccessities
selling my humanity
