                                              "Ladies and gentlemen, may I introduce, Lady Westfall." The announcer said, a spotlight flickered to you and you held your head high, the music started to play.

Mirror, can you hear me?
Do I reach you?
Are you even listening?
Can I get through?
There's a part of me that's desperate for changes
Tired of being treated like a pawn
But there's a part of me that stares back from inside the mirror
Part of me that's scared I might be wrong
That I can't be strong...

                                              The mirror goes both ways. It reaches out to you and your father. He doesn't listen to you and you try to not listen to your wants.

I've been afraid, never standing on my own
I let you be the keeper of my pride
Believed you when you told me I was nothing on my own
Listen when I say, I swear I've worn today
I will not surrender, this life is mine!

                                                Your father kept telling you, you won't be able to make it on your own, you needed him.

Amazing how you conquered me, chained me in servility and made me see
The world the way you told me to
But I was young and didn't have a way to know the truth
Born to live your legacy
Existing just to fill your needs, a casualty
Of this so-called family that you have turned into a travesty
But I don't intend to suffer any longer
Here's where your dominion falls apart
I'm shattering the mirror that kept me split in pieces, that stood between my mind and heart
This is where I'll start

                                                Now you refuse to let him take control of you, it's time for you to break free.

I'm not your pet, not another thing you own
I was not born guilty of your crimes
Your riches and your influence can't hold me anymore
I won't be possessed
Burdened by your royal test
I will not surrender
This life is mine

                                                 His name, his title, his wealth, all of that meant nothing to you anymore. You won't surrender your freedom to him any longer.

Shame that it took so long to rescue me
From the guilt you used to tie me to your family tree
I guess your training failed, you're not in charge I'm free
Your patriarchal prison won't hold me
Now this conversation's finally over
Mirror mirror, now we're done
I've pulled myself together now, my mind and heart are one
Finally one

                                                    Yes, it took you a very long time to realize how much you wanted freedom.

I'm not your pet, not another thing you own
I was not born guilty of your crimes
Your riches and your influence can't hold me anymore
I won't be possessed
Burdened by your royal test
I will not surrender
This life is mine

                                                    You are not his pet, no longer will you be a bird in a cage. Today, you will be freed.
