Through The Eyes Of Someone Else

I don’t expect this to make sense

I know it will sound selfish

But mind from heart

It may be hard

But I’ve learned to distinguish

I

I know there’s no one here to blame

I

I don’t expect you to understand

Though I know you will

I learned the hard way

Feelings won’t change

The way things need to go

But the choice I made

Turned out to be the best way

I found to let me know

What I needed to know about myself

Through the eyes

Of someone else

I leave my scars

I block my mind

Trying not to think about you

In someone’s arms

It breaks my heart

But I know you’re not here for me to claim

Though it won’t ease the pain

I’m too in deep to change

Something now

I learned the hard way

Feelings won’t change

The way things need to go

But the choice I made

Turned out to be the best way

I found to let me know

What I needed to know about myself

Through the eyes of someone else

I can put it in a thousand words

But it wouldn’t explain

No, it won’t be enough

You know I know all there is to know 'bout your feelings bae

But my heart still burns

I

I keep on being honest

Each time to find

There’s still plenty in my chest

To learn from

To learn from

I learned the hard way

Feelings won’t change

The way things need to go

But the choice I made

Turned out to be the best way

I found to let me know

What I needed to know about myself

Through the eyes of someone else

Someone else

I

I keep on being honest

Each time to find

There’s still plenty in my chest

To learn from

To learn from
