In the mirror you see
Something that you will don’t have to be
But deep down you change with emotion
On the outside there seems to be a lot commotion
Drugs take control
They seem to change your soul
Needing help and having no one to talk to
All they do is mock you
Not helping you situation at all
Now your life is finding downfall
On the inside you’re beautiful
But on the outer layer you’re despicable
Needles and pain
Are you really this insane?
Look at the reflection of all your horrible family and friends
If you don’t change, this is how your reflection will end

I see people in situations that they need help with, but instead they turn to drugs to "help" them, and in the end they have the same problems there family faces
