He Doesn't See Her Beauty

I hate the way you dont
Look at me
I hate the way you dont
Kiss me softly and tell me itll be allright

I hate the way my heart stops
When you are near
I hate the way my heart drops
When you call her dear

I wake up
And I stare into the cracked mirror
And I wonder why I dont like what I see

I lay a stranger in my own bed
And I wonder why I feel so alone
Why not her, instead?

I would say I miss you
But I never really had you
I would say you broke my heart
But I never really gave you a chance to tear it apart

Ive looked into your eyes
From a distance
Ive heard her lies
Up close and personal

I roll over onto the floor
I bury my face in the carpet
And I think of a time before
Heartache and regret

I see that little girl
Smiling, super happy
Her eyes shining
Like great big pearls

With the seasons,
She did change
With too many reasons,
She grew estrange

I wake up
A mouthful of tears
A heart full of fears

Can happiness and I meet again?
Can we become one
And remember when?

The reflection haunts me again
I roll up my shirt and shake my head in dismay
I run my fingers over my face
I dont like how I look, today

Hopelessness creeps over me like a trap
It enfolds me in its darkness
And I am ready to snap

I will be alone
For the remainder of this life
I sigh and let out a groan

I hate the way you dont
Look at me
I hate the way you dont
Kiss me softly and tell me itâll be allright

But most of all,
I hate what you have done with my heart
And the way you watched me fall

I realize Im not so much in love
As I am angry and hurt
The tears fall and I wipe them away quickly
You will never see me cry

I walk away
From the happy couple
And I hope to go astray
Quiet and supple

So he might not know
