I watched her world crumble
I looked into her eyes
The eyes of the brokenhearted
Whose ears have heard lies
Whose skin has been scarred
Whose heart has felt pain
Whose smile has hidden
More loss than gain
Whose soul is tired
Whose mind is ill
Who's fought more battles
Than you ever will
I looked into her eyes
And watched her cry
Tear after tear
From wanting to die
She stood all alone
Staring right back at me
And then I knew why
She didn't want anyone else to see
There were marks on her arms
And scars on her thighs
Her whole body
Covered in lies
She looked at me
Knowing no one would ever hear her
That's when I stopped
And walked away from the mirror
