My Mirror

by No1ButMe   Jun 15, 2005


Right now I want to cut
just take all my pain away
I can't hold up
my mirror for another day
I want to cry my tears
let me cut away my pain
because when I cut
all my problems seem to drain
I try to keep myself together
but people make it really hard
my life is already shattered
a different problem, for each little shard
I watched my life fall to pieces
each issue leaving it's mark
I just sit depressed and lonely
slowly dieing in the dark
each one of you left your crack
branding me for life
so let me just do this
I'm going to pull out my knife
I look at my life
my lonely broken mirror
I try to understand my problems
but everything becomes so unclear
my one and only friend
me, myself, and I
no one else can understand
that I just want to doe
my life as delicate as glass
was just as easy to break
slowly falling to pieces
with each mark you make
you continue on your quest
to make me crumble and fall
you enjoy watching my mirror crack
and it slowly falls off the wall
slowly heading toward its death
as it starts declining toward the ground
it will fall eventually
and when it does no one will be around
sometimes I wish I could be stronger
and not be so powerless
my mirror is worth nothing
It's always such a mess
now if you try to look at my life
you'll see nothing past my shield
I hold up my broken and shattered mirror
so my life will forever be concealed.
