you wouldn't believe me

you wouldn't believe me

you wouldn't believe me if i told you

but it's up to you what you see

i can't change the craft of your eyes

or even hope that you agree

But I'll let you take words without meaning

and let your mind define what's there

Because one poem of a million

could be one to strike you where you care

But i see you, and I see the sky in your eyes

I can see you, see the truth behind your lies

I see your lonely and your pride

I see the pain that breaks your stride

I see the smile that fades away

and hear the words you dare not say

But that's all.

Your guard is good, I'll give you that

Flat, it's so down pat

You wouldn't believe me though, if i told you

that it's okay to care.
