When I look at you
I see someone whose lost love before
I see someone who's afraid to dive in
Someone who says it’s
Not their fault they can’t take the first leap

When I look at you
I see someone who doesn’t trust
I see someone who is strong enough
To be happy but doesn’t know how
Someone who says you’re always
Getting your heart broken

When I look at you
I see right through you
Because how can your heart be broken
If you never opened it in the first place
