They say beauty is in the eyes of the beholder,
but I saw beauty when you leaned on my shoulder,
I know that I shouldn't be this affected,
but it all changed because of what you said.

"Only you can understand me", she said,
I just wish I was already dead,
this burden is too heavy to carry,
when there are feelings that are left to bury.

I just wish you were still mine,
wishing that you're still the sun to my shine,
can't you just give me a sign?,
a sign that says that you're just fine?!

I want to be happy for my own well-being,
but I just can't believe what I'm seeing,
you look so happy but I know you're not,
Because through your eyes I see the distraught.
