Lyrics
I sat on the floor
Looked up at my mom
As she looked in the mirror
Put her lipstick on
And I wished it was mine
One day after school
She caught me wearing her dress
Put me over her knee
Said to pray and confess
But deep inside I still wished it was mine
I learned never to let it show
Keep it on the down low
Just the mirror, just the mirror and me know
I learned never to let it show
Hiding this glitter and gold
Just the mirror, just the mirror and me know, oh, oh
A pussycat wig
And some old Cha Cha heels
Take a shot of tequila
To kill all the feels
It’s my first time
I walk in the club
I walk straight to the back
And catch my reflection
There’s a girl looking back
And she beautiful
Am I finally home?
Now I'm ready for my first show
'Cuz finally now I don’t
Hate the mirror, hate the mirror anymore
Now I'm ready to let it go
'Cuz finally now I don’t
Hate the mirror, hate the mirror anymore, oh, oh
All the hours perfecting my art
Put concealer on my broken heart
For this queer fascination, oh
The most powerful thing you can do
Is become the image of your own
Imagination
Now I'm ready to shine my light
It's different now 'cuz I
Love the mirror, love the mirror everytime
Now I'm ready to fight the fight
It's different now 'cuz I
Love the mirror, love the mirror everytime, oh, oh
The most powerful thing you can do
Is become the image of your own
Imagination
