  • Take a breath, easy now
    My eyes are playing tricks on me
    Tell me the mirror must be lying
    It's not what I want to see

    How can I just be me
    When I don't recognize myself
    Wishing I was something better
    I want to be someone else

    Lately I've been fighting with that girl in the mirror
    Who decides what's beautiful
    We are all so different, not one is the same
    Now it's time that we can all decide
    What's beautiful

    Look at her, so confident
    Perfection, so appealing
    She seems so happy but she is plastic
    It's not what I want to be

    I deal with this every day
    I'm slowly starting to break free
    Learning how to truly love who I was made to be
    Who I was made to be

    Lately I've been fighting with that girl in the mirror
    Who decides what's beautiful
    We are all so different, not one is the same
    Now it's time that we can all decide
    What's beautiful

    I've had enough to see what's fake
    It's always been my choice to make
    Imaginary enemy no longer has control of me

    We all define what's beautiful
    We all define, we will decide
    We all define what's beautiful
    We all define, we will decide

    Lately I've been fighting with that girl in the mirror
    Who decides what's beautiful
    What's beautiful

    Lately I've been fighting with that girl in the mirror
    Who decides what's beautiful
    We are all so different, not one is the same
    Now it's time that we can all decide
