Juliette Reilly Mirror Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hallway, high school
Their words cut deeper than they know
Get up, look cool
Put on some glitter for the show
Try to fit the archetype but something isn't feeling right
Weekends, alone
They say they'll call but never do
Wait by the phone hope someone notices you
Replicate their every move to fit the mold and make it proof

[Chorus]
What you see in the mirror isn't clearer
Than the fight that's in your heart
Love yourself first in your own words
Don't let them tear you apart
Just keep your eyes on what's inside
'Cause the mirror lies, woah, woah, woah
'Cause the mirror lies

[Verse 2]
Get thin, fit in
To jeans you don't even like
Change clothes five times
But you were just the perfect size
He'll love you just the way you are if he's good enough to hold your heart
Now there's whispers, small town
Like fire it takes hold of you
Reflect, perfect Just smile and hold back the truth
Don't let them see that you're afraid
They'll never know you anyway

[Chorus]
What you see in the mirror isn't clearer
Than the fight that's in your heart
Love yourself first in your own words
Don't let them tear you apart
Just keep your eyes on what's inside
'Cause the mirror lies, woah, woah, woah
'Cause the mirror lies

[Bridge]
Ten years later
Everything you knew you would be
Look in the mirror, tell the girl who's still sixteen
There's someone you can get behind, someone that you recognize

[Chorus]
What you see in the mirror isn't clearer
Than the fight that's in your heart
Love yourself first in your own words
Don't let them tear you apart
Just keep your eyes on what's inside
'Cause the mirror lies, woah, woah, woah
'Cause the mirror lies, woah, woah, woah
'Cause the mirror lies
