We look but we don't see
We don't see things, even though they're right there
Right in front of our faces
There's this feeling...
A feeling that tells you to see where your heart can see
I have to go through layers of skin
Before I really know "you"
Some layers are thick
Layers you cover and build up
Hoping not to have feelings
Numbing yourself to hide from pain
Your blood still cold
It's ironic how you have layers
Layers of skin and still feel cold
You use it to block out everything
All the emotion...so you won't hurt
All live-less inside
Feelings you keep to yourself
Hoping not to hurt again
...But you hurt me
By not showing feelings or reactions
Everything you block out
Everything you keep inside
You want to tell someone
Tell someone how you feel deep inside
Why you have so many layers
What about hurting again?
Questions running through you mind
Questions you need answers to
Which means you have to ask someone
Take all the layers off
Then we will finally see
See what's staring at us right in the face
Everything will finally clear up
You will see where your heart can see
See the one who knows "you"
The one who really loves and cares for you
I will still be here waiting
In your mind you're still thinking
What if it's too late?
What if that person is gone...
Just gave up, tired of digging
Digging through all the layers
I would never give up on you
Yet you still question yourself
Don't just look
See through your eyes and heart
I will be there
I will go through all the layers
I'm I the one who knows "you"
I will be there waiting
When you finally get the courage to take the layers off
You will see the one who cares for you.
