Cayla: "Through the Eyes of Me"

Today i learnd to love,
and the pain that it may bear.
you can never know a person's truth,
behind the masks they wear.

I dont know the meaning of love,
or why it mostly isn't true.
im unsure of so many things these days,
i know less then i thought i knew.

i find it's getting diffucult,
to distinguish bad from good.
and all together it sounds cliche,
im a child misunderstood.

i need to move on past the hurts,
i need to stand up to others,
and to myself as well.

i dot know how to tell,
a good friend from a bad.
we talk behind eachothers backs,
ruining the trust we had.

when i stare into the mirror,
i see things i wish i could deny.
a fear of judgment and confrontation,
i can no longer look myself in the eye.

if everybody has to go,
through tourment and through pain.
if they understand the hurt,
thats anothers gain.

if they can feel,
the burden of their fears.
and know the cost of showing their tears.

if they know how it feels to have a lover or a friend.
stab their back with knives.
why are they so cruel to say these are my best friends for life?
