Through the Eyes of Another
Just once I wish that someone
else could see things the way I see,
but through the eyes of another,
they think that it's just me.
When I look into the mirror I
don't like what I see,
but through the eyes of another,
I'm as good as I can be.
I see and hear alot of things
that other people don't,
but through the eyes of another,
they say forget it but I won't.
People always tell me just
take things day by day,
but through the eyes of another,
maybe I should find another way.
I live my life in so much pain
because of the love'd one's I have lost,
but through the eyes of another,
it's just another path to cross.
I get so mad at myself for
the way I handle things,
but through the eyes of another,
they just don't care what it brings.
This life I have lived just
seems to be unfair,
but through the eyes of another,
I made it through on a wing and prayer.
