I hear their voices before they speak, I feel their gaze upon my skin. They don’t see me, just what they fear, Another shadow in the wind. Through their eyes, I’m a stranger still, A monster that I can’t undo. I want to be more than they think I am, But I’m lost in the way they see me too. Every step feels heavier now, When all I see are judging eyes. I hide myself in the quiet dark, Afraid of what the light implies. Through their eyes, I’m a stranger still, A monster that I can’t undo. I want to be more than they think I am, But I’m lost in the way they see me too. If only I could turn away, And walk a path that’s just my own. But every whisper pulls me back, Their words have carved me into stone. Through their eyes, I’m a stranger still, A monster that I can’t undo. I want to be more than they think I am, But I’m lost in the way they see me too.
