Lyrics
Mirror
Just who do you think
Who do you think you see
When you're standing there
Looking at me
Am I someone
Someone you think you know
Or just that someone
You want me to be
I'm not your mirror
I can't just be who you want to see
No I'm not your mirror
Get over yourself and you might see
What you thought you saw
Inside of me
Was really just your fantasy
I'm not your mirror
Turn around now
It's just me
Should I even care
Care what you think
When you never cared
Before
Can you see past
Past all this glass
When it's finally
Shattered on the floor
I'm not your mirror
I can't just be who you want to see
No I'm not your mirror
Get over yourself and you might see
What you thought you saw
Inside of me
Was really just your fantasy
I'm not your mirror
Turn around now
It's just me
Broken pieces
Shattered dreams
I was never your everything
Now just strangers
Or so it seems
This picture of us is vanishing
It's vanishing
I'm not your mirror
I can't just be who you want to see
No I'm not your mirror
Get over yourself and you might see
What you thought you saw
Inside of me
Was really just your fantasy
I'm not your mirror
Turn around now
It's just me
