You Look At Me and I See You
You can’t understand me and you try.
You’ve tried to change me but you can’t.
You wonder why but found me so.
You’re trying to make me into what i’m not.
You claim that i don’t show enough care lately.
You complain about me to people, but i’m above gossip.
You’re pissed you’ve lost control,
now you treat me like a baby.
You don’t want to talk about it but i will.
You’re done doing this, what about me?
You look at me and i see you.
You know what, just leave.
What! You can destroy me if you want.
You shouldn’t have messed with me if you knew.
You’re pissed, you wanna teach me a lesson,
yet you want to be my one and only…
