I see something in your face
That no one else sees
There’s something in your eyes
No one would ever believe
You look up at the world
That looks down upon you
You want to be a part of
something
That doesn’t want any part of you
Yet I see
The eternal hate that should have
been
Doesn’t exist for
Another feeling that could have
been
A beautiful life that would have
been
If you hadn’t been burnt
I can see inside of you
What you really need
Isn’t the love or respect of the
world
But something less demeaned
It’s acknowledgment that you
crave
For all the sacrifices that you
made
For all the hurt you had to brave
Just for being alive
It’s a different world that I see
From the one that you perceive
Yours is forever dark
But doesn’t miss the light
Yet I see
The eternal hate that should have
been
Doesn’t exist for
Another feeling that could have
been
A beautiful life that would have
been
If you hadn’t been burnt
