Verse 1 I wish I could see what you see When your eyes land on me You don’t pause, you don’t pull away Like there’s nothing here you’d change I’ve memorized every flaw Every crack, every fault But you look at me like somehow None of that counts Pre-Chorus I see broken, I see damaged You see a heart that just got handed To the wrong hands one too many times But somehow it’s still alive Chorus (contrast-driven hook) I see damage, you see a heart I see pieces, you see art I see every crack in me You see where the light gets in I see someone hard to love You see someone worth it just because I don’t know who’s right between us two But I wish I saw me like you do Verse 2 I hear echoes of everything That ever told me I’m not enough You hear something softer in me Like I’m still worth your love I call it weakness, you call it kind Like we’re reading different lines From the same worn-out page But we don’t see it the same way Pre-Chorus I see all the times I fell apart You see how I made it this far Chorus I see damage, you see a heart I see chaos, you see art I see every crack in me You see where the light gets in I see someone hard to hold You see something made of gold I don’t know who’s right between us two But I wish I saw me like you do Bridge (raw breakdown, rhythmic + spiraling) What if my mind’s been lying? Every mirror misdefining Every flaw I magnify Isn’t truth, it’s just been loud inside What if I’ve been seeing wrong Playing back the same old song Every voice that tears me down Just echoes, not the sound I don’t trust these eyes of mine They’ve been cruel too many times If you see something I can’t see Maybe that’s the truth, not me Final Chorus (extended, bigger contrast + emotional shift) I see damage, you see a heart I see pieces, you see art I see every crack in me You see where the light gets in I see someone I can’t save You see someone strong and brave I see everything I’m not You see everything I’ve got Maybe I’ve been wrong this whole time Reading every scar like a crime If your eyes are closer to the truth Maybe I could learn to see it too I see damage… you see a heart Maybe that’s where healing starts
