ME

I've seen my reflection in the mirror,
But I'm sure that it's not me,
I look at the life I have right now,
Knowing it is not who I want to be,
I know just who I'd like to be,
But that life is out of reach,
No-one knows what's in my heart,
And there's far too much to teach,
I'm fed up with living like a doll,
Real freedom is nothing but a dream,
They hold me back and tie me down,
What looks fine isn't what it would seem,
My heart cries out for a life of it's own,
They don't understand, they'll never know,
But before I can get a life of my own,
They will have to let me go.
