Look at me.
What do you see?
Am I just another face?
Do you even remember my name?

You say you love me
But you can't look me in the eye
What are we doing?
Just wasting time...

Look at me.
And tell me the truth
What do you see?
Don't close your eyes!

I don't believe
A word you say
Get out of my life already
Go away!

But before you leave
Do one thing for me
All I ask,all i need
Is look at me.

Go on and try to tear me down. I will be rising from the ground, like a skyscraper<br /> <br /> Love is louder than the pressure to be perfect
