I look into the mirror,
see so much pain in those eyes.
I look into the mirror,
see so much anger in this body.
I look into the mirror,
wondering, who am I?
Am I real,
or am I just a bad nightmare?
Nobody knows about all the pain,
the pain I get every day.
That pain is too much,
I want to escape it,
but I can’t,
it’s caught in my soul.
Can’t get out.
I look into the mirror,
the only thing I see,
are the scars.
