I see…
I see people around me
Yet I feel so cut off from them
I feel too broken to even care

Tears are falling, I don’t know why
Maybe I am selfish
Maybe I’m too kind
I just don’t seem to connect to life

Tears are falling, I may know why
I am jealous
I am hateful
I compete when there is no prize

Tears are falling, stinging tears
Maybe these are the root of my fears
I don’t want to be left alone
I don’t want to be left unloved
I don’t want my someone special
To push away because I’m callous

Here in my heart, secrets hide
I am tainted
I am marred
Left alone for too long
Now my innocence is scarred

People say they love me
But that’s not the kind of love I need
All I can say is I need a light
Every body can try if they knew
Yet I don’t need every one
I just need one soul
My light, my love
