Peculiar and Beautiful
What is a mirror?
What does it tell us?
Lies? Truth?
What is it reflecting?
What we are? What we want to see
I know nothing more capricious than a mirror
It can choose to make us love or detest all that we are
Our face, our body, ourselves
Nothing escapes it
And in this game where it is familiar with all the traps and pitfalls, it never ends up losing
It laughs at our tears, our fears and our pain
It mocks us, and what do we do in return?
We encourage it
Some even believe what the mirror says and sell their body to it
They begin to lose weight and money in order to please it
They mark themselves with countless scars
Hoping one day to become more beautiful than narcissus
And God alone knows that to obtain the most beautiful smile
Man is ready to suffer a thousand trials
How sad
Because in the end, it is the mere fact of being us, that makes us peculiar and beautiful
But man is afraid
He is scared by his differences
Scared of what others might say
Scared of what the mirror would think
Fear
What a strange feeling
An overdose can poison a whole life
But let me give you a piece of advice
Break it
Break the mirror, it blinds you
And be you, simply you
That will be enough, believe me
What does it tell us?
Lies? Truth?
What is it reflecting?
What we are? What we want to see
I know nothing more capricious than a mirror
It can choose to make us love or detest all that we are
Our face, our body, ourselves
Nothing escapes it
And in this game where it is familiar with all the traps and pitfalls, it never ends up losing
It laughs at our tears, our fears and our pain
It mocks us, and what do we do in return?
We encourage it
Some even believe what the mirror says and sell their body to it
They begin to lose weight and money in order to please it
They mark themselves with countless scars
Hoping one day to become more beautiful than narcissus
And God alone knows that to obtain the most beautiful smile
Man is ready to suffer a thousand trials
How sad
Because in the end, it is the mere fact of being us, that makes us peculiar and beautiful
But man is afraid
He is scared by his differences
Scared of what others might say
Scared of what the mirror would think
Fear
What a strange feeling
An overdose can poison a whole life
But let me give you a piece of advice
Break it
Break the mirror, it blinds you
And be you, simply you
That will be enough, believe me
