The Mirror

So you think you don't need me anymore
 They say I'm no longer what you're looking for
 All your so-called friends are just means to an end
 You're losing the battle to win a war
 But I'm holding up a mirror
 Do you like what you see?
 'Cause I'm holding up a mirror
 So you can see what you look like to me

 Raw ambition is a mother, though
 It can steal away your heart and soul
 Make you sell out the people that you used to know
 So you can get to the place where you think you wanna go
 But I'm holding up a mirror
 Do you like what you see?
 'Cause I'm holding up a mirror
 So you can see what you look like to me

 Now I have been down the road you're on
 Craving fortune and fame
 A shooting star, then the moment's gone
 And everyone forgets your name
 (Forget it, forget it)
 A lesson lived is a lesson learned
 Music suffers as the system turns
 Your heartfelt expression into a deal for a fee
 But you better keep it coming
 'Cause they get it all for free
 And I'm holding up a mirror
 Do you like what you see?
 Yes, I'm holding up a mirror
 So you can see what you look like to me

 Yes, I'm holding up a mirror

 Now I'm holding up a mirror
