I wrote this when I was 14
Look at me and tell me what you see.
Do you see your advantages?
Or do you see nothing?
I see my disadvantages.

That's exactly what I see in your eyes;
Nothing, nothing can hold you back.
Nothing, nothing but lies.
Lies that I lack.

When I look at you,
I see a future of discomfort and Pain.
I guess it's gonna take you some time
To see the heart that you have slain.

So, I'll sit and wait for the wrong
to be right.
I'm slipping and almost gone.
I guess something I won't be seeing is the light.
