Black mirror

Lyrics @Fleur de lys_ all right reserved. Traduction and music : IA & CyanUr _______________________________________ My alarm goes off, it’s six in the morning. I don’t wanna climb out of bed. I know I should, I know it’s the right thing, But I’d rather stay here instead. I don’t wanna go back to school, Spend another day stuck in a chair. I tell myself today will be different, But deep down I already know where it ends. It’s half past six, breakfast is done. Time to get dressed, but it’s never much fun. I stand in front of my mirror again, And somehow it always points out my flaws. Always too much… or never enough. Too much stomach, not skinny enough. Not fashionable, not pretty enough, Always comparing myself to everyone else. My long golden curls won’t do what I say, A few little pimples just won’t go away. I try to smile, pretend I’m okay, But the mirror still finds something wrong anyway. Why does everybody look so perfect? Or is that only what they want us to see? A pretty face can’t tell you what’s inside, A kind heart shines much brighter to me. Whenever I look into my mirror, It whispers I’ll never be a superstar. But maybe… maybe it’s been lying all along. It’s seven o’clock, I’m finally ready. My mom looks at me and softly says, “You’re beautiful.” I really want to believe her. But one more glance into that mirror, And all my doubts come rushing back. Why does everybody look so perfect? Real beauty doesn’t disappear with time. A talent, a dream, a loving heart Will always outshine a pretty smile. Whenever I look into my mirror, I’m learning not to believe Everything it says about me. Because somewhere deep inside, I’m worth so much more Than a reflection staring back at me. If your mirror feels like your worst enemy, You’re not alone. Mirrors only reflect the outside. They can never show your courage, Your kindness, Or the beauty growing inside you. Fleur de lys
