AS YOU LOOK AT ME

TELL ME WHAT YOU SEE

AS YOU SIT AND STARE

TELL ME YOU SEE MY LIFE FEARS

AS YOU LAUGH AT MY JOKES

TELL ME YOU SEE THE PAIN

I TRY TO REVOKE

AS YOU COME TO ME

TELL ME YOU SEE THE LOVE THAT I NEED

AS YOU COME AND SIT WITH ME

TELL ME YOU FEEL THE THINGS I FEEL

AS YOU COME AND TALK TO ME

TELL ME YOU HEAR WHAT IS REAL

AS YOU LOOK AT ME YOU MAY SEE A LOT OF THINGS

CONFIDENCE, HAPPY AND FREE AS CAN BE

BUT THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS YOU DO NOT SEE

LIKE THE SHY LITTLE BOY WHO'S SCARED OF SOCIETY

OR THE WEIRD LITTLE BOY WHO TALKS IN HIS SLEEP

OR EVEN THE BIG DREAMER IN ME

YOU DON'T SEE THE BOY WHO WENT TO SCHOOL

DAY AFTER DAY THE ONE WHO WAS PICKED ON

AND CALLED SO MANY NAMES

OR THE BOY WHO TRIED TO TAKE HIS OWN LIFE AWAY

YOU DON'T SEE THE PAIN AND DEPRESSION I FIGHT

BUT I'M WORKING MY WAY INTO THE LIGHT

IN HOPES ONE DAY I CAN LEAVE MY DARK PAST BEHIND

BUT FOR NOW MY DARK NIGHTS REST HERE BY MY SIDE

YOU ONLY SEE WHAT YOU CHOOSE TO SEE

SO NOW THAT I HAVE SHOWN YOU ALL OF ME

WHEN YOU COME AND LOOK AT ME

WILL YOU SEE THE SAME THING?
