Baby I see the Pain

Baby I see the pain,
I see the pain in your eyes,
when you look at me.
You know I am hurting,
you know so much,
so much more than
you should.
I see the pain in your eyes,
I'm willing you to look away,
to let yourself be distracted.
Please forget my pain.
I see my pain multiplied,
when I look in your eyes.
I see my pain in your eyes,
where you try to take it on,
as you try to rescue me.
Swim away, swim ashore, baby,
before you drown.
