Look at me Look at me I wasn't hiding the wound Look at me Look at me You just never zoomed I left the evidence sitting in plain view Changed my tempo changed my color changed what I would do I didn't need a rescue speech or a staged parade I needed one real glance that proved you stayed You kept collecting comfort while I ran on empty pride Called my quiet "attitude" and walked to the other side I wanted a witness not a judge with a grin Someone to clock the fracture happening under the skin I offered the truth in the smallest available size You stepped over it clean and then asked why I iced I wanted you to notice that I was hurting Not later not prettier not once I was gone I wanted you to notice that I was hurting While the damage was live and the night was still on I wanted you to notice that I was hurting You had the front row and you still looked away I wanted you to notice that I was hurting That want is retired It does not replay Don't bring me flowers for a fire you ignored Don't narrate my pain like you just found the chord I already survived the part where I hoped you would see That version of me is not taking the stand for free I wanted you to notice I wanted you to notice I wanted you to notice that I was hurting I wanted you to notice I wanted you to notice I wanted you to notice that I was hurting I wanted you to notice That want is retired I wanted you to notice that I was hurting
