In Their Eyes

Through their eyes,
I'm not perfect,
Through their eyes,
I'm an embarrassment,

Through their eyes,
I can't become nothing,
But in my eyes,
They are all wrong,

I am perfect,
Just the way I am,
Even if through their eyes,
Things all go wrong,

In my eyes,
I'm I'm not an imbarressment,
I'm just funny,
Coy and don't try to top that,

In their eyes they say i'm fat,
But i'm just fluffy,
Like a bag of feathers,
That needs to just sometimes be pressed,

In their eyes,
I'm wrong for all I do,
But in my eyes,
I don't believe,

What they say or think,
In my eyes I'm a beautiful character,
And in their eyes,
Nothing else seems to matter...
