[Verse 1]
Woke up with a stranger in my skin
Same old face, but something's wearing thin
Tried to smile, but it cracked like glass
Echoes staring back, stuck in the past
[Pre-Chorus]
I touch the frame, but nothing feels right
Like the soul inside forgot how to fight
[Chorus - Distorted guitar]
The mirror lied when it said I’d heal
Showed me whole when I couldn’t feel
Told me I’d be strong again
But every glance reminds me when
You broke the part of me I hide
And now I know… the mirror lied
[Verse 2]
I dress the wound and play pretend
But truth’s a ghost that won’t descend
Your shadow fits behind my eyes
No matter how I burn the lies
[Pre-Chorus]
I see a smile that doesn’t belong
I hear my voice, but it sounds all wrong
[Chorus - Distorted Guitar]
The mirror lied when it swore I’d mend
Sold me hope I couldn't defend
Promised light was on its way
But left me darker every day
It showed a man I can’t confide—
'Cause now I know… the mirror lied
[Verse 3]
Now silence speaks louder than screams
And peace is just a thing in dreams
I trace the lines that time won't mend
Each scar a word I can't defend
[Bridge – Soft, whispered]
I used to trust what I could see
Now glass just stares right back at me
You turned my truth into disguise
Now every reflection’s built on lies
[Final Chorus – emotional peak]
The mirror lied with a perfect face
But never showed the empty space
Told me I’d survive the fall
But never showed the cracks at all
Now every piece I try to find
Just proves to me… the mirror lied
[Outro – fading]
Yeah, I believed…
But the mirror lied…
