When You See Me
Unveiling the Unseen: When You See Me
Lyrics
Sometimes it feels like I don't measure up
The speaker sometimes feels inadequate or as if they fall short in certain aspects of life.
I wonder if just being me will ever be enough
The speaker questions whether simply being themselves is sufficient or acceptable.
Put on a brave face to face the day
The speaker portrays a facade of strength or confidence when facing challenges.
You'll never hear the prayers I pray
Despite the external appearance, the speaker believes their prayers or innermost feelings remain unheard.
Feel what's going on inside
The speaker desires others to recognize or understand their internal emotional state.
See me giving up the fight
The speaker feels overwhelmed or exhausted from trying to cope or resist something.
What you don't see is me hiding all the hurting
The speaker hides their emotional pain or distress from others.
What you don't see is I hate to be a burden
The speaker dislikes burdening others with their problems or emotions.
I'm untied next minute I'm in knots
The speaker experiences rapid shifts in emotions or feelings, from being free to feeling constrained.
I ain't perfect yeah, I break a lot
The speaker acknowledges their imperfections and tendencies to make mistakes.
A square peg trying to fit in that round hole
The speaker feels like an outsider or someone who doesn't fit into a particular situation or group.
You'd be amazed at all the things that you don't see
Others might be unaware of the struggles, emotions, or challenges the speaker faces.
When you see me
Highlighting the essence of the song: the unseen emotions, struggles, and complexities when people see the speaker.
Sometimes I feel I'm sinking and gonna drown
The speaker feels overwhelmed by challenges or emotions to the point of feeling like they're drowning.
That's when I need to put my hand up, let somebody pull me out
In times of distress, the speaker recognizes the need to seek help or support from others.
Cause a brave face won't save the day
Maintaining a facade of bravery or strength won't solve the underlying issues.
You'll never hear what I don't say
There are things the speaker doesn't express vocally or share with others.
Or know what's going on inside
People around might not fully understand or recognize the internal struggles of the speaker.
If I'm too afraid to try
If the speaker doesn't take risks or make efforts due to fear, others won't see their potential or true self.
I know I'm not the only one and behind the clouds there is a sun
The speaker recognizes that they are not alone in their struggles and remains hopeful for brighter days ahead.
And a light that's gonna shine in days to come.
Despite challenges, there's optimism and a belief that things will get better in the future.
