lyrics

She takes her time
She's made up her mind
She's going by herself
She ain't go no one else

She's drawing her line
She's left nothing to find
She's wasted on herself
She'll live for no one else

So she draws out the mirror from her dreams

Baby if you're mine
Won't you pay no mind
But when I lose myself
And I'm with someone else
Then all that's left is the one I love

She's standing in line
She's awaiting her sign
She's calling on herself
To return as someone else

She's a word and a rhyme
She's got nowhere to hide
She's looking at herself
And she sees someone else

So she throws down the mirror as she screams
