Why Don'T You See Me
Here I stand
Out in front
Bare for all to see
I shed my skin
Emptied my soul
But you don’t see me
The foolishness I left behind
The years I lost, just wasted time
You’ve taken all I have to give
Requesting more so you can live
And now my shell is all I have
The rest gone down the drain
My one and only life I had
Has disappeared in vain
Its over now
My end is here
Still shaded by your tree
I gave my all for you to live
And you never saw me
