Mirror Songtext
von Catch Your Breath

The more I try to change my reflection
The clearer and clearer the stranger in the mirror

Another day, another chance to
Wake up and hate myself or try to drown it out
Another day, another wreck, and
I think I need some help, don′t leave me to myself

'Cause I get tired of all these problems I′ve created
The only hell I ever made was in my head

The more I try to change my reflection
The clearer and clearer the stranger in the mirror
The more I fight off my imperfections
The nearer and nearer the stranger in the mirror

Oh, the stranger in the mirror
In the mirror
Oh, the stranger in the mirror
In the mirror


They said the medication would hold up
But therapy only works if you show up
In the mirror with a face full of cold blood
Lookin' at a person I don't even know, huh
I tried numbin′ it down, I tried openin′ up
I tried tellin' ′em I'm lost, but it don′t help
With a bottle in bag, I keep circlin' down
With all my demons, ′til I'm caught in my own hell

Gotta get it right, what's the remedy I need just to live a life?
Fake a smile for the world like this shit′s fine, but I′m dyin' on the inside

The more I try to change my reflection
The clearer and clearer the stranger in the mirror
The more I fight off my imperfections
The nearer and nearer the stranger in the mirror

Oh, the stranger in the mirror
In the mirror
Oh, the stranger in the mirror
In the mirror

I′ve been feelin' empty, something′s in the way
We can play pretend, and pretend that I'm okay
I′ve been feelin' empty, often in a daze
I think I'm way too far gone, but still

The more I try to change my reflection
The clearer and clearer the stranger in the mirror
The more I fight off my imperfections
The nearer and nearer the stranger in the mirror


Oh, the stranger in the mirror
In the mirror
Oh, the stranger in the mirror
In the mirror
Oh, the stranger in the mirror
In the mirror
Oh, the stranger in the mirror
In the mirror
