Reflections of Imperfection

I look into this distorted glass
A cruel image comes back to me
And it breaks me more than I do it
When I see the face I hate to see

But now I'm caught inside that glass
Trapped with the spirits of dignity
And the ghosts of my self-esteem
Can I live in anonymity?

Or must I face the world this way?
Must I stay and face rejection
Or can I just stare into the broken glass
At my reflections of imperfection.

Beauty is just Skin Deep

You broke my heart, you made me cry,
Without even giving me a try.
You judged by how I looked,
Just like I was some old book,
And I was wrong I should have guessed,
Why wouldn't you be like all the rest?
But now you ask me if I would
Go out with you, I don't think I should.

Because yesterday isn't that far away,
You didn't like me then, then why today.
So forget about now, let's think about then,
And if I've changed please tell me when.

My hair is long, my teeth are straight,
And now you're asking me for a date.
Who I am still hasn't changed.
Just my looks, isn't that strange,
That your mind changed when I'd
Changed my outside, not inside.
I'm looking for someone who loves
The me that was given from above.

Because yesterday isn't that far away,
You didn't like me then, then why today.
So forget about now, let's think about then,
And if I've changed please tell me when.

I thought you were honest
Thought you were caring
Thought you were everything I wanted.
But, oh no, I was wrong.
I should have known it all along.

Beauty is just skin deep,
It's the heart you got to keep.
But if you look into my eyes,
You'll see their owner's gotten wise,
And you'll see what you did wrong.
There's no more trying to belong.

I'll Think of You

Every time I see the midnight sky,
And the crescent moon shinning high above me,
With the stars shimmering their precious light,
Whenever the day becomes the night, I'll think of you.

Every time I close my eyes,
And slowly, gently drift off to sleep,
With lights flashing inside my head,
Whenever I'm alone in my bed, I'll dream of you.

Every time I see lovers pass my way,
And I wish I had a lover to call my own,
With the way they look into each others eyes,
Whenever someone cries, I'll remember you.

Every time I hear a love song,
And the melody makes me sing,
With the notes dancing along,
Whenever I sing a song, I'll sing for you.

I'll think of you.
