**Verse 1:**
They say I look good, but their eyes betray
A truth they can't quite face, they turn away
Their pity's a burden, a weight I can't bear
If they really cared, they'd show it, they'd be there
**Pre-Chorus:**
Their words are hollow, like echoes in the night
I see through their smiles, their discomfort in plain sight
They think they're helping, but they don't understand
The pain of pretending, the need for a hand
**Chorus:**
Don't need your pity, don't need your lies
Just be real with me, look me in the eyes
If you see yourself in me, don't turn away
Stand with me, don't just say you're okay
**Verse 2:**
They shuffle their feet, avoid my gaze
Caught in their own fears, lost in a haze
They see a reflection, a shadow of their soul
Afraid to confront it, afraid to be whole
**Bridge:**
If you felt my pain, would you still walk away?
Or would you find the courage, the right words to say?
It's not about saving, it's about being true
Showing up, standing strong, just being you
**Chorus:**
Don't need your pity, don't need your lies
Just be real with me, look me in the eyes
If you see yourself in me, don't turn away
Stand with me, don't just say you're okay
**Outro:**
So take off the mask, let your heart be seen
In this world of shadows, let's be real, let's be clean
No more pretending, no more disguise
Just two souls connecting, no more lies
