As she diez in the mirror
I look into her eyes
and see a broken soul
Experiencing a life
filled with hardship and cold
I see the misuse
she so calmly hides
She makes my heart crumble
when haunting memories make her cry
Traumatic situations
have become a familiar misery
Drama suffocates her world
without room to breathe
She needs to get away from her life
but has no where to go
As she looks ahead
she sees a neverending road
Reaching out her arms
for comfort and relief
Realizing no one is around
to help her release
Love comes and goes
like feathers in the wind
Realizing life's a battle
some lose and some win
But still she sits away
and wonders from within.

Is it her fault
for failing trials and tripulations
Or is it just a test of strength
for future contemplation
Still tension and animosity
within her escalates
Trying to block out this feeling
she never can escape
Instead she goes numb
looking through her life
With a cold empty stare
no twinkle in her eyes
Nothing is left of her
she is hopeless
It's what she has become
and clearly she knows this
Endless days
cold unforgiving nights
Making her wonder
if it's even worth the fight
She loses the knowledge
between pain and pleasure
Keeping it so well hidden
that she doesn't even remember
Believing in her own fake smile
when a mirror she has passed
Inside she contemplates
how much longer she can last
On the verge of crazy
when she looks up from rock bottom
Waiting for true friends to help her
realizing she don't got 'em
She turns to God
but he can only listen
No reply when she asks
why this life she's been given
She breaks my heart
when I glimpse into her soul
faded pride and powered fury
bound forever in pain that never grows old
Stuck in a daze
as she gazes
Into this life
which she is enslaved
Immune to the memories
between mad and insane
Careful not to hear her own cries
and careful not to show her pain
She doesn't even recognize
the girl in the mirror
Until she sobers up
and her mind becomes clearer
Each day I pray
that this girl will find a way to break free
And each night I wish
that this girl wasn't me.
