They stare too long her way
Eyes sharp like they cut through clay
But they don't see her laugh
They don't see her shine
Just labels they hide behind
She's more than they'll ever know
She's more than their shallow show
Through their eyes she's a shadow
Through their eyes she's a storm
Through their eyes she's a puzzle
But to me she's the norm
Through their eyes she's a question
Through their eyes she's a wall
Through their eyes she's just different
But to me she's it all
Her hands paint colors I can't see
Her words they build worlds for me
But they see chaos wild
A stranger in a stranger's child
They'll never sit long enough to see
She's more than their whispered tones
She's more than the fear they've shown
Through their eyes she's a shadow
Through their eyes she's a storm
Through their eyes she's a puzzle
But to me she's the norm
Through their eyes she's a question
Through their eyes she's a wall
Through their eyes she's just different
But to me she's it all
