Leslie Nuchow Mirror Mirror
Mirror, mirror on the wall
make me thin oh make me tall
make me everything I'm not
so I can be all that they want
oh, I wish into your glass I would see
the one that I've longed to be
I hope that she's hiding in a room,
no they've killed her off way too soon
way too soon
CHORUS:
don't want to be lonely
don't want to be sad
don't want to be mixed up in my head
don't want to be nasty
don't want to be cruel
just want to be...
the reflection of you
mirror, mirror can you tell
what lies beneath my wishing well
is what I want just what I'm told
can I be bought
can I be sold
but it's all so convoluted here
I pray my flesh would disappear
I pray so hard, my mind explodes
out pours all my broken bones
broken bones
REPEAT CHORUS
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust ashes to ashes
And dust to dust ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Sticks and stones will break my bones and
Names have always harmed me sticks and
Stones will break my bones and names
Have always harmed me
mirror, mirror can you see
where I have placed my dignity
you never say a single word,
but believe me...
you are heard
my anger is lost within a shell
if I could scream if I could yell
I'd make the mirror makers go away
for the price we all have had to pay
we've had to pay
REPEAT CHORUS
