Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Look at me
You may think you see who I really am
But you'll never know me
Every day
It's as if I play a part
[Verse 2]
Now I see
If I wear a mask, I can fool the world
But I cannot fool my heart
[Chorus]
Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
When will my reflection show who I am inside?
[Verse 3]
I am now
In a world where I have to hide my heart
And what I believe in
[Verse 4]
But somehow
I will show the world what's inside my heart
And be loved for who I am
[Chorus]
Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
Why is my reflection someone I don't know?
[Verse 5]
Must I pretend that I'm
Someone else for all time?
When will my reflection show who I am inside?
[Bridge]
There's a heart that must be free to fly
That burns with a need to know the reason why
[Chorus]
Why must we all conceal
What we think and how we feel?
Must there be a secret me I'm forced to hide?
[Chorus]
I won't pretend that I'm
Someone else for all time
When will my reflection show who I am inside?
[Outro]
When will my reflection show who I am inside?
