lyrics

It would be nice if I could see you tonight, and tell you everything that I hate to your face. Might be a mistake, but when it’s all said and done, I’ll be able to fill up this empty space. And I’ve wished upon a star, too many times before. And I’ve tried so fucking hard to make a lover from a whore. Mirror mirror on the wall, your beauty staring back, don’t mean nothing at all. Heartless and hopeless, forever you’ll need, to feed your thirst without subtlety. Don’t get me wrong, I am over this. Just want to reiterate in case you missed. I never said that you were wrong, for giving up on love. I just thought all along, that you were the one. Mirror mirror on the wall, your beauty staring back, don’t mean nothing at all. Heartless and hopeless, forever you’ll need, to feed your thirst without subtlety. When I was only seven, I would dream of hell or heaven, thinking anywhere but here, is where I wanna be. So don’t flatter yourself, I’ve been battling depression, well before you ripped my heart out. When I was only seven, I would dream of hell or heaven, thinking anywhere but here, is where I wanna be. So don’t flatter yourself, I’ve been battling depression, well before you ripped my heart out. When I was only seven, I would dream of hell or heaven, thinking anywhere but here, is where I wanna be. So don’t flatter yourself, I’ve been battling depression, well before you ripped my heart out. Well before you ripped my heart out!
