And will you succeed? Yes! You will indeed 98 and 3/4 guaranteed


Today i woke up and saw my past
My face upon the looking glass
What I saw was only lies
A face I don't recognize

The face was horrible
It frightens me
To see what I'd become
And the monster in me

The girl with no morals
And a snake tong of lies
She had sharp fierce teeth
And red cat eye

She asked me if I liked who I'd become
That this is who i was inside
I smashed the mirror to 1,000 bits
And out spilled all its lies
