You Won't See Me
Unseen Emotions: REO Speedwagon's Message of Acceptance
Lyrics
Why can't we see eye to eye?
Expressing frustration or conflict in understanding each other's perspectives.
I feel you don't want to try
Sensing a lack of willingness on the other person's part to make an effort.
Cause you won't see me as I am
Feeling unseen or misunderstood by the other person for who they truly are.
If you can't accept in me
Highlighting the importance of accepting both positive and negative aspects.
The good with the bad
Emphasizing the need for acceptance despite flaws and imperfections.
Then you won't see me cry again
Anticipating that refusing to accept the full self may lead to emotional distress.
You won't see me
Reiterating the idea that the other person won't witness emotional vulnerability.
Why'd you want to go and walk away?
Questioning the decision to distance oneself and expressing a need to communicate.
I have got some things to say
Asserting the importance of expressing thoughts and feelings in the relationship.
But you won't see me as I am
Repeating the theme of feeling unseen or misunderstood for one's true self.
If you can't accept in me
Reemphasizing the significance of accepting both strengths and weaknesses.
The good with the bad
Underlining the necessity of acceptance for a renewed effort in the relationship.
Then you won't see me try again
Suggesting that without acceptance, attempts to reconcile will not be made.
You won't see me
Reiterating the emotional withdrawal due to a lack of understanding and acceptance.
I'll be movin on, I'll be long gone
Indicating a decision to move on and leave the relationship behind.
You are in my range
Describing a mutual connection where both parties are within each other's reach.
I am in your sight
Stating visibility and acknowledgment in the relationship.
You say, things don't change
Presenting a disagreement on whether things can change in the relationship.
I say, they just might
Expressing a belief that change is possible despite differing opinions.
You just might find that you can trust in me
Encouraging the other person to trust by looking beyond surface impressions.
If you look at more than just what you want to see
Promoting a more comprehensive understanding of each other.
But you won't see me as I am
Repeating the theme of feeling unseen and misunderstood for one's true self.
If you can't accept in me
Reiterating the importance of accepting both positive and negative aspects.
The good with the bad
Stressing that failure to accept the full self will result in departure.
Then you won't see me around here again
Conveying the idea that without acceptance, the relationship will end.
You won't see me
Reiterating the emotional withdrawal due to a lack of understanding and acceptance.
I'll be movin on, I'll be long gone
Confirming the decision to move on and leave the relationship behind.
