Mirror mirror


Mirror mirror on the wall
I don't reflect in you at all
A small price to pay for the gift .of flight
Swooping and soaring through the night
Though mirror mirror all you do
Is paint portraits each day anew
You show the cost of each day's strife
Measure the passing of each day of life
Mirror mirror man's ancient beauty aid
Cruelly records each partial beauty fade
Mirror mirror on the wall
I don't need you anymore at all
For I can swoop and I can fly
Maybe some day I will die
But the night is mine with all its joys
I don't need your mortal toys
Just the blood of life for me to taste
Harvested with care so none goes waste
Mirror mirror I am free
No longer bound by your tyranny
For mirror mirror on the wall
I don't reflect in you at all
