[Intro]
(If I don’t learn to love my own reflection)

[Verse 1]
Vulnerable, again
Vulnerable, again
The devil made me deaf
Now every angel’s wing is clipped and bent
I think the petals on my heart
Are folding in
I could never find a cure
[Chorus]
Open the doors and let me in
I’m ready to hurt and heal again
I’ll never find myself in the end
If I don’t learn to love my own reflection

[Verse 2]
Cynical, again
Cynical, again
Still waiting to ascend
But evеry ladder up is missing steps
I think the pеtals on my heart are folding in
I could never find a cure or medicine
They broke me open like a godless mannequin
Still feeling numb

[Chorus]
Open the doors and let me in
I’m ready to hurt and heal again
I’ll never find myself in the end
If I don’t learn to love my own
Open the doors and let me in
I’m ready to face the mirror again
I’ll never find myself in the end
If I don’t learn to love my own reflection

[Bridge]
I let the glass crack, warping my perception
Put back the fractures and build a better shell
Shell
Coming to grips with (At what cost?)
Everything changing (To evolve?)
I trans-mutated (I know, I—)
Can’t go back now

[Chorus]
Open the doors and let me in
I’m ready to hurt and heal again
I’ll never find myself in the end
If I don’t learn to love my own reflection

[Outro]
(If I don’t learn to love my own reflection)
