We Look

It's very simple you see, To be you To be me You musn't listen to the words they speak People; all they do is envy Or maybe it isn't just that It can be much more Are they not happy with themselves? Do they not like themselves? Is it hard for people to see? Words hurt me They pierce right through my heart Don't let them fool you You're much greater than what you think you are Look in the mirror Do not, not like the person you see You are beautiful... to me Beyond the flaws Beyond the scars I see a lovely heart
