Because I was looking for something
and because you were there
I fooled myself into thinking
in thinking you could care

that's when you looked right through me
and I believed all of your lies
when the only part of me that you could love
was your reflection in my eyes

When you look in the mirror
you see what you want to see
when you look in the mirror
you look through me

You sure like to talk about yourself
and everything you do
but when you talk about someone else
it's how it pertains to you
you were so transparent
why wasn't I able to see
until you looked right through
and stripped a part of me

When you look in the mirror
you see what you want to see
when you look in the mirror
you look through me

You looked right through me
as though I wasn't there
in love with your own image
completely unaware
'cause boys who look right through me
and only like me for what I do
next time I'll be more careful
next time I'll look through you

When you look in the mirror
you see what you want to see
when you look in the mirror
you look through me
