Tremble
And lie
And Fear
That it's all falling to pieces
That I'm falling
To pieces
Pick it all up
And start
Again
For the first time.
Not looking at a woman I know
But it's strange to see
My face
With the mix of my parents features
And not being afraid
That the stranger in my mirror
That girl who feared failure
That girl who feared the unknown
In fear and mistrust
Of becoming the worst
Of that man I didn't know
But my heart
And his failures
Don't have to be the same
My grief has taught me
To stop lying to myself
To my friends
To the people who love me the most.
Smile stranger
Start to know
Why she smiles
What makes the tears fall
Look at her and fight
Any impulse to fear
The unknown.
Tremble
And face it
Whatever comes
And if she falls
I'll pick myself up
Start again.
Fear but never fall
Rely, on me
But on others too.
Be a strength for myself
And for the people I love.
Mirror, mirror, on the wall
Thanks for finally letting me see.
