[Verse 1]
I'll get up this morning, read about all my plans
Read about vacations with my latest man
Everything I did, what I should've done
Why I didn't stay, why I didn't run
[Verse 2]
Only I hold the key to unlock the door
I might make mistakes, I made them before
Things I hear about my life as a book
Things I'd rather forget but they forced me to look
[Chorus]
(Mirror image, mirror image)
If it isn't in black and white (It never happened)
(Mirror image) Reflections of me
Do you see what they want you to see?
Looking at my life through a mirror image
Mirror image
[Verse 3]
Must I confess everything that I've done?
Can't a girl go out and have herself some fun?
I don't wanna be judged I don't want the blame
Living for the day is how I play the game
[Verse 4]
There's always a dream, there's always a stage
Somebody's looking, now it's on the front page
Through my rearview mirror I can see where I've been
I forget the beginning and I can't see the end
[Chorus]
(Mirror image, mirror image)
If you see it in black and white (Do you believe it?)
(Mirror image) Reflections of me
Do you see what I want you to see?
Looking at my life through a mirror image
Mirror image
[Verse 5]
Only I hold the key to unlock the door
I might make mistakes, you know I made them before
Things I hear about my life as a book
Things I'd rather forget but they forced me to look
[Chorus]
(Mirror image, mirror image)
If it isn't in black and white (It never happened)
(Mirror image) Reflections of me
Do you see what they want you to see?
Looking at my life through a mirror image
Mirror image
[Bridge]
(You've got me wrong) That's not what I said
(All of those stories) That shit I'm reading instead
(The party last night?) I thought I was in bed
Mirror image, mirror image
Mirror image, let me be
[Chorus]
(Mirror image, mirror image)
If it isn't in black and white (It never happened)
(Mirror image, mirror image)
Looking at my life (Do you believe it?)
(Mirror image, mirror image)
If you see it in black and white (It never happened)
(Mirror image) Reflections of me
Do you see what I want you to see? (Do ya?)
