[Verse 1]
Mirror on the wall, it never tells a lie
She looks at her reflection with a heavy, hollow sigh
The whispers in the hallway, the laughter in the street
Every step she takes feels like a bitter, cold defeat
They call her names that cut much deeper than a knife
The shadow of their cruelty has followed her through life
[Pre-Chorus]
No one to call, no hand to hold tight
Just a ghost in the corner of the neon light
Even at the table where the family should be
They look away in shame, like there's nothing left to see
[Chorus]
She's the girl they never wanted, the face they won't embrace
A girl who's lost her spirit, a 'disgrace' to the race
With a heart that’s been shattered by a thousand different lies
Looking for a kindness in a world of judging eyes
Every love she ever tasted was a poison on the tongue
Cheated on and broken since the day that she was young
[Verse 2]
The boy who said he loved her, he was just a hollow shell
Using her for comfort while he put her through a hell
He'd promise her forever then he'd find someone 'more thin'
Leaving her to wonder why she's trapped inside this skin
The weight isn't just physical, it's the words they left behind
The heavy, dark reminders of the things they were inclined to say
[Chorus]
She's the girl they never wanted, the face they won't embrace
A girl who's lost her spirit, a 'disgrace' to the race
With a heart that’s been shattered by a thousand different lies
Looking for a kindness in a world of judging eyes
Every love she ever tasted was a poison on the tongue
Cheated on and broken since the day that she was young
[Bridge]
Lonely is the bedroom where the tears fall on the sheet
Wishing for a miracle, a way to be complete
But the cycle keeps on turning, the world keeps spinning by
Leaving her in silence with a song she can only cry
[Outro]
Just a girl in the shadow...
Waiting for the light...
But it never comes...
It never comes.
[Fade Out]
