I See You



I see you
Standing there
Wishing that someone would care

I see you
On your knees
Praying that they will not tease

I see you
Deep on your eyes
Hoping there'll be no more lies

I see you
As you cry
Wishing that someone would pry

I see you
With broken bone
Knowing you are all alone

I see you
In all your sadness
Wishing to stave off the madness

I see you
Down and out
Wishing not to see such doubt

I see you
In all your pain
Praying the world believes your feign

I see you
Your clothes are torn
Hoping there's no more to warn

I see you
On the street
Still looking out for those you meet

I see you
In the mirror
It's never been any clearer

I see you
