Whats important to me

Look! Do you notice, can you see?
how important this is to me
you see me everyday
you know all my ways

but do you really know
no, you don't because I don't show
the pain and heartache buried inside
do you notice these tired eyes?

please make the right choice
hear my voice
do you understand these words I speak
I am continually getting weak

Do you know why I am upset?
Why at night my face is wet?
From tears I cry for you
praying for enough strength to get through

I'm afraid for the future ahead
are you afraid at all or do you have no fear instead?
Do you know why I am scared?
If you make the wrong choice, you won't be prepared

Prepared for the day when you fall away
when you're no longer here to stay
please, understand feel my breath
this is life or death

So, Do you notice? , Now can you see?
why all of this is important to me
