Mirror - Original Song

verse 1
I remember when
When I used to have it all together
I was the one you always wanted
Do you remember that?

chorus
Look in the mirror now
And tell me what you see
I can’t see anything
The reflection isn’t me

verse 2
Never get to close they say
That’s how I’ll live
Cause there’s just no way
Anyone could replace you

chorus
Look in the mirror now
And tell me what you see
I can’t see anything
The reflection isn’t me

verse 3
Nobody knows
Nobody cares
Who I am underneath it all
Now who I am is defined by who I was

chorus
Look in the mirror now
And tell me what you see
I can’t see anything
The reflection isn’t me


verse 4
That mirror’s never changing
I can’t see forward
I’m stuck in the rut you left me in
How do I escape?

chorus
Look in the mirror now
And tell me what you see
I can’t see anything
The reflection isn’t me

bridge
Why O Why did you do it?
How O How did it come to this?
I just wanna see you in that mirror
Staring back at me
The future plain to see

Does somebody care?
Does somebody know?

chorus
Look in the mirror now
And tell me what you see
I can’t see anything
The reflection isn’t me

ending
Does anybody care?
Does anybody know?

I really like this one. You'll have to come down (up? :p ) to MI again someday and play it for me. I especially like how eloquent it is in its simplicity. Another accomplishment well done.
