[Verse 1]

Look at me

You may think you see

Who I really am

But you'll never know me

Everyday

It's as if I play a part

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 2]

I am now

In a world where I

Have to hide my heart

And what I believe in

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?

[Post-Chorus]

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 the need to know

The reason why

[Chorus]

Why must we all conceal

What we think

How we feel?

Must there be a secret me

I'm forced to hide?

[Post-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?

Oh, yeah, yeah, mm
