sapphire eyes # 4 (i think)

< The Other side of the mirror >


Sometimes i blow bubbles through the wrong side of the mirror

Staring at those sapphire eyes

Do you see me back

You don’t because I’m

On the wrong side of the mirror blowing bubbles


Life is a game, and I’m the player

I don’t get to choose

I just have to move

When they tell me to

I don’t get to roll the dice

I only could handle one

And they rolled a five

Be a good girl

Hand over your cards

Then move a spot 

Life goes on

Make it end

Make it end


Sapphire eyes

I feel like I’m

Always on the wrong side

Wrong side of the mirror

H-E-L-P

no one ever hears when I say help me

no one will spare a penny

Be a good girl

We are in control 

Skip a turn

Skip a year

And look I’m still here


Sapphire eyes

You have fun

And all I can do 

Is watch you

Play on without me


I’m on the wrong side of the mirror

You get everything

I lose everything

Had to give you up to my best friend


Life is a game

And its always the same

For me

I lose they gain

Give up all your money to the bank

Then pay what you don’t have

Games don’t cut you slack

When you are a loser


My friends know somethings wrong

But when I need them they’re gone

They look in the mirror to see their pretty faces

They never look through it to see me 

Stuck in place

On the wrong side of the mirror


Never tried to say something to risk their pretty necks

 the best are always safe 

The best never have to play


Sapphire eyes

Gave you up to my best friend

The only thing they let me do

Is watch you

Kissing a girl that should be me

But she’s not

Because i'm stuck

Blowing bubbles on the wrong side


Black and red

Purple and blue

The bubbles pop and blood spills

Pills are the only things that stop my headaches

I can’t hallucinate

When I’m under


Wrong side

Game life

I’m the loser

And they are the winners

And I have to watch

Them look in the mirrors with pretty faces, diamond chains, gold lipstick

And then I'm here and no one gives a frik

My mirror has cracks

And my head is shattering

I see lights in the dark

Because I’m left there all the time

Left in the dark

While they win the lottery


Sapphire eyes

Wish you could see me

Wish you could see the mistake you made

When you chose her

Winner and losers

How did I get here

I dont belong on this side of the mirror


Tick tock

Look at the clock

My turn is coming up

But the losses never stop


I lose they win

Smiles on their pretty skins

Raise their chins

They have nothing to fear

I watch from the dark

I watch through the mirrors

Their reflections look so good

I only look good through jail bars

People only like me when I’m locked up

When I’m contained


Sapphire eyes

Must be nice

To be a winner

Must be nice to be her

Since she won you over
