girl in the mirror

I can't stand the girl in the mirror
The wall in between us just keeps growing thicker
Every single layer, layered with myself
Build 'till nothing's visible, dark prison cells
One for the girl in the mirror, one for myself

But her body's trapped by the wall that I built, built with your help
Base too strong to break, no you're safe in your dark prison cell
Every brick above is smaller, heaviest at the bottom
But we're too blind to see the basis of it, you just see the top and then dismiss it
Now my insecurities are hidden, the bricks I laid out now contain them
And now I can't see

The girl in the mirror

I can't breathe, when I'm around her
So why is it harder to live when her presence is gone now?
Took her innocence for granted, now I know she doesn't have it, cuz I saw it in between the bricks
Told me that its the glue that makes them stick
Told her that she's just dramatic, should've known what would happen next, cuz another layer's added
It's become a kind of habit

Every brick above is smaller, heaviest at the bottom
But we're too blind to see the basis of it, you just see the top and then dismiss it
Now my insecurities are hidden, the bricks I laid out now contain them
And now I can't see

The girl in the mirror
The girl in the mirror
The girl in the mirror
The girl in the mirror

The girl in the mirror
I hate that I need her
I wish she were clearer
I just want to meet her

The girl in the mirror
I wish she were clearer
I hate that I need her
I wish she were clearer
