Seventeen faces Lit from below Filtered at breakfast Filtered at four I count the difference Between them and me In likes, in lighting Behind closed doors The world's out there Or so I thought Turns out the enemy Was standing this close Every window's A little courtroom Every screen A jury of one And the verdict's Always waiting On the glass When the day is done Mirror, mirror Keeping score I've been losing To you for years You don't own me Not anymore Every version Better dressed Every version I detest You're the enemy I never named My mirror enemy No more blame I practised my posture For a photograph Rehearsed my opinions For the aftermath Bought the jacket Everybody wore Told myself That's what success looked like The world's still out there I hear it hum But the loudest critic Lives under my thumb But the loudest critic Lives under my thumb Every window's A little courtroom Every screen A jury of one And the verdict's Always waiting On the glass When the day is done Mirror, mirror Keeping score I've been losing To you for years You don't own me Not anymore Every version Better dressed Every version I detest You're the enemy I never named My mirror enemy No more blame Put the phone face down Put the light out too Just my own two hands With no one watching me There's a crack already Running through the glass I didn't make it It was always there Mirror, mirror Not today I'm not asking Permission to stay You don't own me Not anymore I'm the one here Setting the terms The frame comes down Let it burn No more enemy No more blame Just an empty frame Without a name There's just a wall now! (Brief silence) Nothing's looking back! Nothing's looking back!
