Ugly Duckling

I'm the ugly duckling from the books
Before the swan feathers bloom
You have to use a bit of courage to look
Inside of yourself to find something true
It took me a minute
But then I knew

I'm the ugly duckling, some may say
I need the nighttime to shake me awake
Before the break in the day
But I don't sleep on broken eggshells anymore
I learned to turn the knob before
You even knock on my door

I'm not the ugly duckling anymore
I've learned to fly so much higher than those
Before me came could soar
And still it hurts to be the one that you ignored
But I can't see much clearer
Without your mirror

Without your mirror
So much clearer
Than before
