My father had porcelain doll
He brushed it
He shined it
His precious porcelain doll

My mother had a glass slipper
She polished it
She dusted it
She protected it
She locked it up
Her precious glass slipper

My sister had a magic mirror
That whispered in her ears
That told tales of beauty
A mirror that never failed her
A mirror that always loved her
Her precious magic mirror

I broke that porcelain doll
I broke her glass slipper
I cracked the magic mirror

His touch burnt my skin
Her cage became too small
Her scars could hide no more

I broke the doll,the glass, the mirror
I failed to be the never ending era
