Mirror
From the "I am" EP
By Juliette Reilly

Verse 1:
G
Hallway, high school,
                                 Em
Their words cut deeper than they know

Get up, look cool,
                            C
Put on some glitter for the show
                  C
Tryin' to fit the archetype
D

But something isn't feeling right
G
Weekends, alone, They say they'll call
          Em
but never do it
              Em                    C
By, the phone, Hope someone notices you
                C
Replicate their every move
D
 To fit the mould and make it through

Chorus:
                   Em
What you see in the mirror,
      C
Isn't clearer,
         G                    D
Than the fight that's in your heart
         Em
Love yourself first,
        C
In your own words
          G               D
Don't let them tear you apart
     Em          C
Just keep your eyes
      G       D
On what's inside
                  Em
'Cause the mirror lies
        C          G          D
Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh
                   D
'Cause the mirror lies

Verse 2:
G
Get thin, fit in
G                            Em
To jeans that you don't even like
                       Em
Change clothes, five times,
                             C
But you are just the perfect size

He'll love you just the way you are
D
 If he's good enough to hold your heart
             G
Now there's, whispers, small town,
G
 Like fire it takes hold of you
Em
Reflect, perfect,
Em
 Just smile and hold back the truth
C
 Don't let them see that you're afraid
D
 They'll never know you anyway!

Chorus:
                    Em
What you see in the mirror,
      C
Isn't clearer,
         G                    D
Than the fight that's in your heart
         Em
Love yourself first,
        C
In your own words
          G               D
Don't let them tear you apart
     Em          C
Just keep your eyes
      G       D
On what's inside
                   G
'Cause the mirror lies

Verse 3:
G
Ten years, later,
                              Em
Everything you knew you would be
                   Em
Look in, the mirror,
                               C
Tell the girl that's still sixteen
                   C
Be someone you can get behind
D
 Someone that you recognize

Chorus:
                   Em
What you see in the mirror,
      C
Isn't clearer,
         G                    D
Than the fight that's in your heart
         Em
Love yourself first,
        C
In your own words
          G               D
Don't let them tear you apart
     Em          C
Just keep your eyes
      G       D
On what's inside
                  Em
'Cause the mirror lies
        C          Em         D
Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh
                  Em
'Cause the mirror lies
        C          Em         D
Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh
                  Em
'Cause the mirror lies
