Lyrics:
Mirror, Mirror on the wall, Have I got it?
‘Cause Mirror you’ve always told me who I am
I’m finding it’s not easy to be perfect
So sorry you won’t define me
Sorry you don’t own me
Who are you to tell me
That I’m less than what I should be?
Who are you? Who are you?
I don’t need to listen
To the list of things I should do
I won’t try, I won’t try
Mirror I am seeing a new reflection
I’m looking into the eyes of He who made me
And to Him I have beauty beyond compare
I know He defines me
You don’t define me, you don’t define me

Behind the Song:
'Mirror is one of the first songs we ever wrote. It talks about how we are made in God’s image, but we often forget that when looking in the mirror. As girls, we’re constantly looking in the mirror. It was this point almost coming in defiance against the mirror itself and saying, 'I don’t have to be, who you’re telling me I should be. You’re telling me I should look like these models, but I know when I look in the mirror everything is as it should be because I am made by God.'' - Alyssa Barlow (BarlowGirl)
