  • Mirror (by Barlow Girl)

    Mirror, Mirror on the wall, Have I got it?
    'Cause Mirror you've always told me who I am
    I'm finding it's not easy to be perfect
    So sorry you won't define me
    Sorry you don't own me

    Who are you to tell me
    That I'm less than what I should be?
    Who are you? Who are you?
    I don't need to listen
    To the list of things I should do
    I won't try, I won't try

    Mirror I am seeing a new reflection
    I'm looking into the eyes of He who made me
    And to Him I have beauty beyond compare
    I know He defines me

    You don't define me, you don't define me
