Mirror on the wall,

Why dont you like me?

Looking at you makes me want to bawl,

'Cuz all I see is ugly.



Mirror on the wall,

Why do you hate me?

I dont like your reflection at all.

Why can't I be pretty?



Mirror on the wall,

Why can't you love me?

You make my tears turn into waterfalls,

'cuz all I want is to be happy.



Mirror on the wall,

I dislike you

I've tried so hard to to get your approval,

But it seems impossible to do

I've had many body-image problems. And this is how I felt/still feel about the mirror.
