[Verse 1]
Hey there girl staring back at me
Eyes like puddles drowning silently
Who am I now do you even know
Abandoned again, will it ever end
[Chorus]
Why do they all leave, where do they stray?
Is it something in me that drives them away?
Am I too much or not enough
This weight's too heavy this life too rough
[Verse 2]
Shaking hands brushing tears from my face
My reflection’s breaking but it won’t erase
Every word they said still lingers strong
Every step I take feels so wrong
[Chorus]
Why do they all leave where do they go
Am I the storm or just the echo
I try to hold on but they slip away
Now I'm left asking why they won’t stay
[Bridge]
Reflection whispers, "You're your own demise,"
But what do you see when tears cloud your eyes?
If you’ll stay with me in this endless pain,
I’ll hold your hand and we’ll fade away in vain.
[Chorus]
Why do they all leave where do they go
Is it that my cracks finally show
Am I the reason for this disarray
Still I’m here crying, begging them to stay
[interlude]
[Verse 3]
Slowly, I’ll rise, I’ll learn to let go…
The weight's still there, but I'm finding my flow
A glimpse in the mirror, and I see a new face
A woman who's healing, taking back her place
[Verse 4]
I take a step forward, into the unknown light
I leave the shadows, and I face the night
I'm not the same girl, staring back at me
I'm stronger, wiser, and I'm finally free.
I’m finally… free…
