Mirror Mirror Lyrics | R.J. Sloane

Mirror Mirror is a hard-driving outlaw country song by R.J. Sloane about selling pieces of yourself for strangers' approval, and the moment you finally walk away from the screen.

Every ring light, every filter, every count of hungry clicks costs something real, even when it feels like nothing. This is a song for anyone who has ever traded what's sacred for a five-cent fix of being seen, and the cold, clear moment when it's finally not worth it anymore.

Ring light buzzin'
Camera locked in tight
Carvin' off a piece of soul
Underneath the light
Angle sharp, jaw square
This is what they bought
Every filter on the lens
Hidin' dignity lost

Smile for the strangers
Count the hungry clicks
Tradin' what is sacred
For a five-cent fix

Mirror, mirror on the screen
Sellin' a piece of self
Just to be seen
Strangers feast on flesh
Givin' back a lie
Dark eyes rob your youth
While your soul rots out
Mirror, mirror...
Just to be seen

Flexin' for the glass
Chasin' vapid fame
Ten thousand hollow shadows
Chantin' out your name
Clueless to the trap
Leadin' with your pride
Every door you open up
Kills a piece inside

Beggin' for the applause
Dancin' on the ledge
Pushin' past the warning signs
Right off the edge

Mirror, mirror on the screen
Sellin' a piece of self
Just to be seen
Strangers feast on flesh
Givin' back a lie
Dark eyes rob your youth
While your soul rots out
Mirror, mirror...
Just to be seen

Screen goes black
Room goes cold
Can't buy back
What you already sold
Drop the phone in the dust
Walk away clean
Nothin' left worth keepin'
Inside that machine

Mirror, mirror on the screen
Sellin' a piece of self
Just to be seen
Strangers feast on flesh
Givin' back a lie
Dark eyes rob your youth
While your soul rots out
Mirror, mirror...
Just to be seen

Mirror, mirror on the screen
Sellin' a piece of self
Just to be seen!

Screen goes black
Now go live free
If you can
