Lyrics

Everyone who knows her seems to think she has the perfect life
The kids, the car, the house, the perfect husband, and she?s the perfect wife
But they don?t see the secrets she keeps hidden deep inside
And the traces of his anger that she tries so hard to hide

She tries, and denies
Then she breaks down and she cries
Life goes on like nothin?s wrong
She struggles each day to stay strong
And she tells herself that everything?s fine
But the mirror don?t lie

He always says he?s sorry when he hits her, every single time
She begs God for forgiveness for the things she?s done to him in her mind
She does her best to stop him, but he always goes too far
The makeup hides the bruises, but it can?t hide the scars

CHORUS

She stares at her reflection, just a shell of the girl she used to be
He can break her body, but one day, her spirit will break free.
