For Who You Are

you don't cry over the smallest thing
but you wonder why you don't cry at all
when you dream 
you don't dream of me
you dream of the past you which you can't change
you wish for the littlest
then you don't wish for it at all
you under estimate power 
for you are the controller
you play people 
like you play the battle 
 now you finally see 
 for it was right under your nose
