Rebekah Freeland - Girl in the Mirror

I look at myself in the mirror, there I see her looking in my eyes
She looks at me with despair
I know it's not fair
But you have to try to put on your best show

That girl in the mirror, she was hurt
By a fire of love that burns
The look in her eyes, she was terrified
But then I realized that deep inside
I'm still terrified
Like that girl in the mirror
The girl that I left behind

Her safe haven slowly became the grave of her innocence
She knew no one could hear her scream because he said it and he meant it

She shouldn't have had to go what she went through, the never-ending feeling that someone will hurt you
She pushed it down until it fucked her up inside
She was just a little girl and they knew that, but the urges were too strong for them to combat
The morality of the situation, what mattered more was their need for validation
You were asking for it
You did nothing wrong, little girl
You deserved it
You did nothing wrong, little girl

That girl in the mirror, she was hurt
By a fire of love that burns
That girl in the mirror, she was hurt
By a fire of love that burns
The look in her eyes, she was terrified
But then I realized that deep inside
I'm still terrified
Like that girl in the mirror
The girl that I left behind
