I see my reflection there,

And I can’t help but stop and stare,

Don’t quite like what I see,

What I am and what I’ve been

No one can help me now,

But I’ll still let you know somehow

All I wanted to do

And how much I love you

I see my reflection there,

And all I can do is stop and stare,

No connection with what I see

No desire at all to be me

The outside doesn’t reflect what’s within

It isn’t enough, what I’ve been given

So I don’t know why I choose to believe

‘cause I know it’s only me that I deceive

So when I don’t connect,

With what this mirror reflects

Tell me honestly,

‘cause I don’t like who I see

I wanna be someone other than me
