Reflection

Look at me

You may think you see who I really am

But you’ll never know me

Every day, it is as if I play a part

Now I see

If I wear a mask, I can fool the world

But I can not fool my heart

Who is that girl I see staring straight back at me?

When will my reflection show who I am inside?

I am now

In a world where I have to hide my heart

And what I believe in

But somehow

I will show the world what’s inside my heart

And be loved for who I am

Who is that girl I see staring straight back at me?

Why is my reflection someone I don’t know?

Must I pretend that I’m someone else for all time?

When will my reflection show who I am inside?

There’s a heart that must be free to fly

That burns with a need to know the reason why

Why must we all conceal what we think and how we feel?

Must there be a secret me I’m forced to hide?

I won’t pretend that I’m someone else for all time

When will my reflection show who I am inside?

When will my reflection show who I am inside?
