What I Choose To See

Some days I wish to close my eyes and open them to see you there

Other days I dream of closing them and never opening them

Cause as the day goes on, I feel as if no one cares

I get treated so badly, as others get treated as if they are some special gem

I close my eyes to everyones deceitful, painful lies

I close my eyes to the world around me

It's my only escape, it keeps me alive

They are closed to the things I dream not to see

I close them to blind out the pain of peoples burning stares

They are closed because I choose to stay in my own world

The world where I choose what I want to see
