Staring at the ruins you caused
All the things I’ve worked hard for
When the results start to show
You smash the stage and spoil the show
A well gardened flower plant
Groomed it from beginning
When the buds are ‘bout to bloom
You slice them off with no mercy
Filled with sadness and anger
Blood boiling and tears dropping
I sought to find the enemy
And stop all this catastrophe
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who’s the villain in this hall?
My eyes widen with surprise
My own face, stares back at me
Loudly, my heart makes a wail
I’m the villain in my tale
Oh! Cursed with self sabotage
Ruining myself and all my plans
But I’m not the villain you see
It’s my fears and uncertainties
I must overcome this foe
In my image and end this woe
