I look into the mirror and what do I see
A face with eyes so sullen and empty
The lids of the eyes seem to droop and say
Why must I relive this day after day
The mirror reflects the image it sees
It has no control over your destiny
The reflections you see in the mirror don't lie
You now see heartache and grief and don't know why
Days turn into weeks and then into years
The mirror still shows all of your tears
The depth of your grief still shows in the mirror
As if you if the image will ever get clearer
The pain and the grief seem to lessen with time
The face in the mirror shows all the fine lines
We know the images that are etched in our minds
Don't look in the mirror you won't like what you find
