Trigger Warning: Mentions of suicide, so if you can't read this, then please don't. :)

Broken lights
Chilly nights

Count to three
You'll be free

No more tears
No more fears

No more words
To make you hurt

No judging eyes
Beg your demise

No mocking laughs
You see your path

No numb emotions
No great commotion

Just imperfection
In your complection

Just one more step
And you're all set

Three, two, one and the magic begins...
Goodbye world, goodbye sins.

And once again, a mirror killed
Another girl, her doom fulfilled

Though mirrors lack mouths to speak
You swear, their laughs are full of bleak

They sharpen every crooked feature
And leave you gasping, someone bleach her

They force you to judge your very skin
And leave you ignoring what lies within

Mirror, mirror on the wall
Who is the fairest of them all?

Hearts race, eyes close, you always knew
The mirror always says, "Not you."
