She Was a Wreck

She Was a Wreck (This song is getting a new title when I think of one. I liked this title initially, but it's becoming a different sort of animal than I expected.)

Your silence drowned out the sounds I had made
And I was just supposed to trust you were watching me
Your gaze disconnected and landed away
And I became deaf and and dumb

And I wanted to know you
Because I thought you would dare see through me
But your silence deafened me
And I feared for the things I had disclosed

Blind child, with a heart untouched
I guess I was the one who couldn’t see
Blind child, who still loved so much
I guess you never did forget me

Blind child, with a heart untouched
I guess I was the one who ran away
Blind child, I feared so much
But I returned to prove I wanted to stay

Blind child, make me see
Through everything I hide behind
Blind child, it was just me
I was the one who was so blind
