Reflection

Look at me

You may think you see

who I really am

But you'll never know me

Every day

It's as if I play a part

Now I see

If I wear a mask

I can fool the world

But I cannot 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

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?
