| In the Mirror
Author: Sunflower Philosophy Literally my most recent song (wrote it yesterday!). It's not about searching for myself, but rather just studying my face in the mirror and accepting who I am.

I'm sitting across the mirror and I know
who I am
It's a feeling I've been waiting for always
I see conflicts and scars written under
my skin
Never taking my eyes off my reflected
gaze
I'm sitting across the mirror and I know
it's been long
Since I've been brave enough to study
my face
I'm a question, an answer, the essence
of both
Intertwining, interlocking, in me, encased
I'm a battle of trust
I'm a layer of rust
I'm proud, but I'm begging… that's just
me
Chorus:
In the mirror
Is an endless illusion
A crazy confusion
Of black versus white
In the mirror
I'm a debate, I'm an answer
I'm asleep, I'm a dancer
Flowing with light…
I'm sitting across the mirror and I know
I'm afraid
Here's my worst enemy and my greatest
friend
The reason behind all my fears and my
laughter
Though in her nerve I can't always depend
I'm sitting across the mirror and I know
I'll survive
'Cause I know inside that girl is a woman
I don't have to dig, she'll shine out
by herself
When she knows I deserve it for all I've
done
I'm a play upon words
I'm a breeze for the birds
I'm strange, but I'm living… that's just
me
Chorus
In the mirror…
I'm an image on the wall
It's broken light, after all
But in that light is me
Yeah, somewhere in that light is me…
I'm sitting across the mirror and I know
who I am
I'm sitting across the mirror and I'm
part of a plan
I'm sitting across the mirror and I know
who I am
I'm sitting across the mirror and I know
that I can
Chorus
And growing with all my might
