Point Of View

From a distant view, I see what I've done
Words I never meant, overshadowing the Sun
Your heart is in your hands, it's fragile and true
While I'm watching from the outside, longing to break through

It's a strange reflection, this mirror of mistakes
A love that dims the light, all the promises it breaks
You deserve much more than what I seem to give
As I see me now, I don't like how I live

I'm standing in the shadow of words I never say
Hands open for love, that somehow slip away
I'm reaching through the void, trying to make it right
From this point of view, I'll find the truth in the light

The light
I'll find the truth in the light

I see the way you bend, under the weight of my hold
A love that should be warm, is bitter and cold
I'm reaching out to touch, to heal what I've scarred
But as I stand and watch, the distance makes it hard

It's a strange reflection, this mirror of mistakes
A love that dims the light, all the promises it breaks
'Cause you deserve much more than what I seem to give
As I see me now, I don't like how I live

I'm standing in the shadow of words I never say
Hands open for love, that somehow slip away
I'm reaching through the void, trying to make it right
From this point of view, I'll find the truth in the light
