Beauty Beneath The Surface
I remember that it hurt
Seeing him with her
Seeing how happy he was when he was around her
I could tell the difference
When he was just with me and when we were all together
He looked at her with all the care in the world, like it was his fate, his destiny
Just to be near her and love her
He had cared for me once
But that was long ago
Long before our paths met and became one I remember that it hurt
He looks at me and I know he sees her instead
I can feel it
His touch is no longer the same, in fact it's no longer there
He spends his time with his arms wrapped around her
Looking at her like he's in shock of her beauty
Yes, she is beautiful no matter how many cuts and scars are placed upon her skin
She was all he fancied, all he wanted
I remember that it hurt
He thought she was the only one with cuts and scars
Little did he know, mine were just hidden beneath the surface
That is where my beauty lies, with the cuts and scars
My beauty was beneath the surface
I remember that it hurt
Looking at him and knowing I could never have him
That his world was now orbiting around her
Looking at him with pain in my eyes and having him not even notice
Having him not even care when he did notice
I remember just how much it had hurt
Because I wasted so many tears on him when he didn't even love me
He loved her with all his heart, I loved him with all of mine.
He never once looked at me the way he did her
He never once saw how real the pain was getting
He didn't understand because he loved her, not me.
I remember that it hurt
Having him look at me and see absolutely nothing at all.
