Look Through Me

A word is just a word
Till you start thinking about it
A bruise is just there
Till you start to feel it
I'm just another human
Till you start to look at me

But I guess I stopped caring
Sometime a while ago
Whether people
Looked at me
Looked through me or
Looked away from me

Because it's all the same now
I'll never let anyone else in
Limiting the people around me
So when I go they won't care about
My sins

They say everyone has their demons
But some demons
Are stronger than others
More violent

A lady said to me
You're life isn't that bad
It's nothing compared to some hell
And I just stared at her
Cause she doesn't know

It's not about what's on the outside
My life seems pretty great
To the naked eye
But it's what's on the inside
Cause on the inside I am dying
On the inside I stopped trying

I gave up on everything cause
I know I won't make it much longer
Look me in the eye and say
My life doesn't suck
Because I know you're blinded like
The rest of them

So go ahead
Look through me one more time
Cause little do you know
I really have
Lost my mind
