Living by the Mirror
My heart is breaking, I'm at the edge of tears
I feel like dying but that's alright
I learned to manage for all these years
But in my heart I know what's right
Some people tell me I'm not good enough
I turn away as if I didn't care
They love to hurt me but like a dying bird
Nobody knows until it's too late
Now I'm looking in a mirror seeing myself as I should be
If you take it away, what will become of me
What will I have to be
I keep on trying and I won't give up
They learn to hate while I learn to love
These tears I'm crying and the heads that drop
It's too hard to push if you try to shove
Just fooling yourself doesn't do any good
You build yourself a wall of steel
If you shed your skin you shed a pool of blood
To walk straight you take the crooked trail
