I know what it's like to be called a freak
To be teased at, tongue tied, and cross eyed
I know about finger pointing and name calling
And nights pounding a tear stained pillow

It's worth it in the end
Cuz I know what its like to be called a friend

I trusted you and held your hand
But you made the earth shake under me

I believed you were sweeter than apple pie
Your eyes were sapphire of truth
Your smile was a moonbeam

But a little too much trust
Made my glass dreams shatter
A thousand promises broke apart
Do the math, Terra
A thousand phony words equal one lie
It never adds up

Rows of mirrors in endless games
Your lonely nights searching for answers
Merry go rounds and games galore

You wanted the best thrill of your life

I can change my skin and body
You were trying to change your heart

Don't be scared of your own reflection
Cuz you're gorgeous, Terra
Eyes of sky blue and hair of spun sunshine
Beauty still hung out with the Beast

I gave you a mirror
To look inside your heart
All you saw was Slade and perfect obedience
While I saw Terra who wanted friendship

Stop running from mirror to mirror
Look inside your reflecting heart
Stop calling yourself apprentice. . Titan. . slave. . . worker. .
I just want to call you my friend.

Terra-a name of the ground
If you were really "down to earth"
I wouldn't be crying now

Silvery raindrops slide off my glass window
Raindrops, teardrops, and a heart shaped mirror

Terra, I thought you were my friend.
