She was done before the start, always mending broken hearts
Making others miserable not knowing who shes hurting
Father said, "This day will be, one for everyone to see"
Is it true youll follow suit and have you learned a thing?
Its just a selfish way to go, its safe to say shell never know
For every person theres a whole life story waiting to be told
When she is happy its OK, but then these people start to fade
Then well just watch her self-destruct as she gets old
She put up defensive shields, to walk through all of lifes minefields
All defined by make-up and a car behind shes hiding
"Father do you have to go, left me questions I dont know"
Any answers or even close the life time lie was true
Shes gonna move on with her life, and take it one heart at a time
And watch the little girl inside her wait behind as she goes on
But with this black heart she decides, who shell take in and shove aside
Until the day she sees that everyone is gone
Getting used to people leaving, thinking true love is deceiving
Soon shell know how lonely it can be
Now was it really worth the pain? A couple pills make her feel sane
While she lives out the story written for the part she is to play
With so much shame for her to hide, theres no more dignity, no pride
Then there will only be dark in her light of day
And she will only see a reflection, of her fathers rejection
Nothing will change until she breaks this life, this life-size mirror
