Mirror mirror

Mirror, mirror on the wall
Is he the strongest boy of all
What he's endured
And what he's seen
How can anyone come away clean

He knows it all
The truth and the fall
But somehow he raises his
Head to the call
Among his limbs
And broken dreams
He somehow stands
To fight the seams
Of those who have seared
His eyes shut
And sewed up all his missing parts

Mirror, mirror on the wall
Is he the strongest boy of all
What he's endured
And what he's seen
How can anyone come away clean

Among all the lies
His eyes have spied
And all the times he's lost his worth
He still walks on and listens deep
To all of those inside his keep
They've ripped his soul
Poisoned his food
But still be marches forth
Determined to find his destined course
Trembling now he takes a step
Only forward from this spider web

Mirror, mirror on the wall
Is he the strongest boy of all
What he's endured
And what he's seen
How can anyone come away clean
How can anyone walk away
    And not scream
