My kind of optimism.

Mirror, mirror, on the floor
I've no need for you anymore.
You lie and say I'm not good enough
So I'm leaving you with my image and finding honesty.

I might have never been on the front cover of a magazine,
Maybe never had anyone think I'm perfect.
But, look, I'm alive - why am I looking for more than that?
There's a simple perfection in breathing and in a human heartbeat.
Why was I ever afraid of a sheet of glass?

The scars are fading, and so are the memories.
I think it's time for a new life,
A new start.
And perhaps this doesn't make sense.
But what sense did I ever make when talking to you?

Mirror, mirror, on the floor
I've no need for you anymore.
