Crying on the inside and it cuts me deep

‘Cause I know you're gonna smile when I fall

I can't help but feel the fear when I'm standing here

‘Cause I know you're gonna laugh if I have to crawl


Can you see the desperation? But you don't know my situation


‘Cause I, I'm fighting to survive

Can't you see it in my eyes?

Please don't push me anymore

But I, I'm still fighting to believe

That there is hope for me

Somewhere beneath the very least of these


And I can't help but feel ashamed when I know the truth

That there was more than I surmised inside your heart

I want to make it go away but you bear the proof

My words burnt through your skin and left you scarred


I didn't see the desperation; somehow I didn't see your situation


Because I've been fighting to survive

I didn't see it in your eyes

But I won't hurt you anymore

And I, I'm fighting to believe

That there is hope for me

Somewhere beneath the least of these
