I can see you
looking at me like
Im nothing
I can see you
laughing to them
telling them how much
you hate me
All because I know what they don't see
But What you don't see is my
scars hidden beneath the hoodies
what you don't hear is my cries
you can't wipe away the
tears that leave makeup smears at night
There seems to be a misconstrued version of me
Hiding in the mirrors at my house
Sometimes I feel so pretty just to
be smashed in the face by
your words
this sense of pride
burst through you
Live in it,
Take it in
Forget all about the pain
Cause What we don't see is your
scars hidden beneath the hoodies
what we don't hear is your cries
we can't wipe away the
tears that leave makeup smears at night
We both see the same side of us
no need to say what we can relate
they say its like preaching to a choir
but oh
no ohh
You're preaching it to me.
So grab my arm and see me wince
forget all about who we are
pull me in and give me hope
cause we both know
They don't see the
scars hidden beneath these hoodies
They don't hear is our cries
we can't wipe away the
tears that leave makeup smears at night
