****BEFORE I START I WANT TO SAY THIS SONG IS NOT ABOUT CUTTING
I have cut before and believe me even though it may seem i=like it's about cutting. Its not.

This song is about someone who is looking for a meaning.

I've been looking in the mirror for so long.
That I've come to believe my souls on the other side.
--The Mirror is a metaphor for life, reflection of her life. She believes her souls has gone somewhere else and this is not the real her.---

Oh the little pieces falling, shatter.
Shards of me,
To sharp to put back together.
---To Her Her Mirror(life) is broken. And that it hurts to much to try to fix what has been done.--

To small to matter,
But big enough to cut me into so many little pieces.
--She pretends like its not a big deal, but it hurts her inside.

If I try to touch her,
And I bleed,
I bleed,
And I breathe,
I breathe no more.
----If she tries to reach out to the mirror she hurts. She doesn't want to go back and see the bad memories.

Take a breath and I try to draw from my spirits well.
Yet again you refuse to drink like a stubborn child.
-----She tries to find answers by looking into herself. Only to find that the answers she finds are thoughts that she rather refuse to accept. ----

Lie to me,
Convince me that I've been sick forever.
---Tell her its not her fault. And that she is like this because she is sick

And all of this,
Will make sense when I get better.
--If she is sick she wants to believe that everything will be okay when she gets better.--

I know the difference,
Between myself and my reflection.
--But she knows that the real her is not the girl she shows on the outside.--

I just can't help but to wonder,
Which of us do you love.
---She wants to know if They love her of if they love who she pretends to be--

So I bleed,
I bleed,
And I breathe,
I breathe now...
Bleed,
I bleed,
And I breathe,
I breathe,
I breathe-
I breathe no more.
---She feels pain and hurts inside. She thinks that her life is meaningless. So she wants to go away
