You shoot one of those perfect smiles
looking at me like you care...

So the day came
the one that I've dreaded...

You tell me these things
"i love you", "I'll protect...

Why do you care?
No matter what I wear...

I knew I'd never be the same again
when I saw that look in your eye...

When you search within my eyes
I can almost read your mind...

I know you saw the pain
that I hid beneath my eyes...

Your silence is bitter.
nothing feels right...

Eyes filled
with water, with pain...

Every time I see your pain
all your worries, all your shame...

I see you staring, walking, talking
we pretend we're not alone...

On the outside looking in
that bitter look of guilt and sin...
