If I saw myself through you
I wonder what I’d see
Would I get to see the failure
I so often see in me
Would I see the girl
So full of broken flaws
Who holds a heart of ice
That never ever thaws
Would I see the child
Weak like a house of cards
Who feels nothing in her chest
But a cluster of broken shards
Would I see the woman
Who cries to sleep each night
Clutching her broken soul
Wondering if she’ll ever be alright
Would I see the girl
Who hides behind her facade
Cause she’s known what’s it to live like
And she thinks it’s just too hard
But perhaps I was wrong
I certainly feel like a fool
When through your eyes all I see
Is a girl you think most beautiful
