I keep on running, chasing the dream Trying to be what you want me to be
Perfect posture, perfect smile Hiding my truth all the while
But in the quiet, I hear the sound A voice I buried calling out
How dare you love the mask, not the face How dare you make my soul erase
I'm jealous of me, the one I left behind
The girl in the mirror, with fire in her eyes
I'm stronger, she's real, she's dying to breathe
But I keep on choosing who you want me to be
Shapeshifting daily, lost in the role A stranger trapped in a script I don't know
Laughing louder, shining bright Living a lie and borrow light
But in the quiet, I hear the sound A voice I buried calling out
How dare you love the echo, not the voice How dare you steal away my choice
I'm jealous, she's real, she's dying to breathe
But I keep on choosing who you want me to be
No more shadows, no more disguise Tonight I'm stepping into my own light
No more echoes, no more chains I won't be jealous of myself again
I'm breaking free, reclaiming my name
The girl in the mirror is one and the same
She's stronger, she's real, she's learning to breathe
And this time, I'm choosing to just be me
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
