The Beauty Isn't Just What We See Its What We Believe

I can see the stars as they align above ahead
collecting particles of wishing death
yet the truth remains I am one of beauty
where this world fills the inside of my breaking soul

the water drips from the hill, splashing into what hides beneath
claiming to be someone I'm not
well let me give you what your giving me

I'd take a second or two as my life flashes before me
when words can't describe what meant most to me
when you were the only thing that made me want to live at all

to pretend I'm more than a worthless man
visions of the trees I once passed
when beauty reflected all there is to see

you were what made it all seem real
you were what made me whole
and to say I could not live without you
would just create another hole

so I confined within this short amount of time
that the beauty around us isn't just what we see
its what's underneath, it's what we believe
close the door and leave your fears behind
for the future awaits yet still remains blind
