When You See Me

Verse 1

Waking up, the weight won’t leave

Typing words no one believes

I say I’m fine, but you know it’s a lie

You see the storm behind my eyes

Hands that hurt me, thoughts that bite

Darkness whispers late at night

I trace the scars I try to hide

Feeling alone with no one inside

Pre-Chorus

You check in when I say I’m okay

You know the truth behind the display

Chorus

You see me when no one else does

Know my pain, all the little fuss

The self-harm, the fights in my mind

The loneliness that I try to hide

You worry, you care, even from afar

A thread of light in my deepest scar

Verse 2

Scrolling through the endless screen

Searching for something to feel seen

You send a word, you show you care

And suddenly the dark feels bare

I drift, I push, I shut people out

But you reach in and calm the doubt

No judgment, just someone who knows

The parts of me I can’t expose

Pre-Chorus

Even in silence, you’re still there

Feeling my pain, feeling my despair

Chorus

You see me when no one else does

Know my pain, all the little fuss

The self-harm, the fights in my mind

The loneliness that I try to hide

You worry, you care, even from afar

A thread of light in my deepest scar

Bridge

I was sure I’d be lost alone

But you reached through the dark unknown

Every check-in, every word you send

Feels like a lifeline I can depend

Final Chorus

You see me when no one else does

Know my pain, all the little fuss

The self-harm, the fights in my mind

The loneliness that I try to hide

You worry, you care, even from afar

A thread of light in my deepest scar

Outro

Maybe one day I’ll feel okay

But for now, your words light the way
