Lyrics

Whispers in the mirror glass A woman afraid her time has passed She knows the world see only skin Where beauty reigns and the heartless win Underneath the veil of what they see The silent scars scream quietly She knows that a woman's a man's disease And beauty's what brings him to his knees Mirror mirror on the wall Show the truth behind it all Reflections twist but I remain A figure carved in beauty's pain She's heartless but she plays the game Where the weak fade and burn out like flames She's thoughtless of the heart she breaks 'Cause she learned to get what you want you take She fights to keep what the years betray While she waits for the world to throw her away Heartless is what she became It's the world that taught her to be heartless In the mirror she traces lines unseen The quiet fear of what they mean The truth she sees is a harsh reflection The years go by but never her obsession In a game where rules are made by men She plays her part cause she knows the end Her face a blade cuts deep in silence She learned to win by choosing violence Mirror mirror on the wall Show the truth behind it all Reflections twist but i remain A figure carved in beauty's pain She's heartless but she plays the game Where the weak fade and burn out like flames She's thoughtless of the heart she breaks 'Cause she learned to get what you want you take She fights to keep what the years betray While she waits for the world to throw her away Heartless is what she became It's the world that taught her to be heartless A woman's sin to age a curse Beauty gained but never worse A thousand faces all her own A queen who's made of ice and stone Ice and stone Mirror mirror on the wall Show the truth behind it all Reflections twist but I remain A figure carved in beauty's pain It's the world that taught her What her beauty bought her She fights to keep what the years betray While she waits for the world to throw her away Heartless is what she became It's the world that taught her To be heartless
