The eyes can't hide What's running through the mind When love begins to die It yields the tears we cry Behind the smile Could be a struggling lie And though we try so hard We just can't fake it But why do we allow somebody to step in Though they can't read between the lines when we are hurting? I don't want to cry aloud I want him to be the one to know That I'm in pain And he's the one to blame I want him to figure out It's all about discerning what is real What I truly feel To see the meaning knowing what's within He holds my hand But never understands Never understands Embracing me in coldness He's too numb to feel If I convey The things I have to say I think you'll only make a fool of myself But why do we allow somebody to step in Though they can't read between the lines when we are hurting? I don't want to cry aloud I want him to be the one to know That I'm in pain And he's the one to blame Am I the one to blame? I want him to figure out It's all about discerning what is real What I truly feel To see the meaning knowing what's within When he starts to see These tears inside of me Then I'll believe That he perceives Just what's within What's within What's within What's within I don't want to cry aloud I want him to be the one to know That I'm in pain Sure in pain And he's the one to blame And I'm the one to blame I want him to figure out It's all about discerning what is real What I truly feel To see the meaning knowing what's within What's within
