(Verse 1)
They look at me with fire in their eyes,
A gaze so cold, a heart full of lies.
They don’t know the truth, don’t know what’s inside,
The walls they’ve built up, they try to hide.
They don’t see the pain, they don’t know my side,
I wonder if they ever stop to ask why.
But instead they judge, and cut me down,
I’m just a stranger in this lonely town.
(Pre-Chorus)
Maybe they’re hurt, maybe they’re scared,
Maybe they’re lost and don’t know they care.
I’ll never know, but I still wonder why,
They let hate burn in their hearts like a fire.
(Chorus)
I try to understand, though it’s hard to see,
How they can hate so much, but still be free.
What is it that hurts, what makes them so cold?
I just want to know, what’s the truth they hold?
I’ll keep on searching through their eyes,
Maybe one day I’ll see what’s inside.
(Verse 2)
The words they say, they cut so deep,
But I can’t let them steal my peace.
Do they think I don’t feel the pain?
Are we so different, or just the same?
I’ve been down roads that they’ll never know,
Fighting battles, feeling low.
Still, I wonder, with every glance,
What if we could just give love a chance?
(Pre-Chorus)
Maybe they’re hurt, maybe they’re scared,
Maybe they’re lost and don’t know they care.
I’ll never know, but I still wonder why,
They let hate burn in their hearts like a fire.
(Chorus)
I try to understand, though it’s hard to see,
How they can hate so much, but still be free.
What is it that hurts, what makes them so cold?
I just want to know, what’s the truth they hold?
I’ll keep on searching through their eyes,
Maybe one day I’ll see what’s inside.
(Bridge)
What if we took a step towards grace?
Put down the weapons, see each other’s face.
Could we heal the wounds that time can’t erase?
Or are we doomed to stay in this broken place?
(Chorus)
I try to understand, though it’s hard to see,
How they can hate so much, but still be free.
What is it that hurts, what makes them so cold?
I just want to know, what’s the truth they hold?
I’ll keep on searching through their eyes,
Maybe one day I’ll see what’s inside.
(Outro)
Through their eyes, through their eyes,
I’ll keep searching, hoping for light.
Maybe one day, maybe one day,
I’ll find the truth, and learn to break away.
