To See Me

Through your eyes, I'm innocent,

and could probably do no wrong.

Through my eyes,

I'm surviving, building my life to be strong.

Through your eyes,

surviving is a natural thing to do.

Through my eyes,

I'm struggling hoping I will get through.

Through your eyes,

my teardrops flow downward to fade away.

Through my eyes, my strength is questioned every day.

Through your eyes,

strength could be in the tears I drop.

Through my eyes,

the pain in me has never taken the time to stop.

Through your eyes,

my innocence shows no tale of lies.

Through my eyes,

I depend on what comes through your eyes.
