I’m waiting for someone who couldn’t exist Waiting for someone different than me Looking in the mirror at what might be missed Helplessly looking for what couldn’t be. She in the mirror is mocking my existence She in the mirror is better then me But I am trying with unending persistence Trying to be better then what I can see. I am looking at she who takes all the glory I am looking at she who is greater than me Mine is the forgotten story I fear a story that no one shall see. For she in the mirror is fighting to stay She in the mirror has now become me Help me keep this being at bay This being stronger than me I am fighting the battles that are inside I am fighting to some day be free I’ll win against what could never abide So that I shall again be me I wish I had never been fooled by another I wish I could hide who tried to be me But I don't think I'm able to run from the other The other who never should’ve been me.
