Now You Know
You look at me and tell me I am beautiful, amazing,
but that I cannot see.
I look at myslef and find a girl who is lost, gazing,
wishing I could love me.
I wish I could see myself the way you say I am,
but it is not that simple and I don't know if I can.
I want to be happy and let go of these thoughts,
they're only hurting myslef.
But if you saw me the way I see me, you would want someone else.
I don't tell you how feel, I keep it in my head.
I laugh, you laugh, but you don't really hear what I said.
It's a silent scream inside of me, a voice that can't get out.
I'll never let you know the truth, it'll never be talked about.
But now we walk and I smile, you say the sweetest words.
Even though I am lost inside myself, I fly away with the birds.
You can find be my the riverside, my feet in the crystal clear.
I didn't get to say goodbye, those thoughts you'll never hear.
