What do you see when you look in my eyes...

You're looking in, I'm looking out
You see a soul full of life, I see a lifeless soul
A fire once burned within this soul
But now blackness is all that remains

You're looking in, I'm looking out
You see a hopeful dreamer, I see a hopeless dream
A passion for life once controlled this soul
But now bitterness is all that remains

You're looking in, I'm looking out
You see a contented heart, I see a broken heart
A strong willed beating once consumed this soul
But now emptiness is all that remains

Like night is to day
Like the sun to the moon
What you see is opposite to reality
You're so blinded by a lie
And no matter how hard you try
You will never see my reality
Because

You're looking in, and I'm looking out
