Girl in the Mirror

There's a girl in the mirror The perfect best friend When I smile she smiles back at me She listens politely and goes where I go She loves all of my favorite things She's the part of myself I'd want others to see As long as no one knows What's underneath But that girl lives in the mirror Tucked away just out of reach There's glass and panels blocking Her from joining reality And she knows all my stupid mistakes Insecurities and heartbreaks, oh And as much as I want to meet her She's a step just out of a reach There's a girl In the mirror she's never upset She sees the good in everything She's cool with the cool kids And smartest in the class And don't care what others think She plays it safe Isn't reckless And thinks 'fore she speaks The way my parents Have always taught me But that girl lives in the mirror Tucked away just out of reach There's glass and panels blocking Her from joining reality And she knows all My stupid mistakes Insecurities and heartbreaks, oh And as much as I want to be her She's a step just out of a reach When I finally tell her That she's all I want to be She shakes her head Says she wishes she was me But that girl lives in the mirror Tucked away just out of reach There's glass and panels blocking Her from joining reality And she knows all my stupid mistakes Insecurities and heartbreaks, oh And as much as I want to be her She's a step just out of a reach A step out of reach A step out of reach A step out of reach
