Attention Seeks You (not the other way around)

I see you with your dancing smile and wide eyes 

I see you with your history stretching way back to where it shouldn’t be 

I see you with your hand extended and your heart outstretched 

I see your broken spirit held together how no one knows 

I see you haven’t shattered yet (and if you keep holding tight you just might make it) 

I see your empty glass and endless winding class 

I see the force field you hang around your neck 

I see how it all adds up to beauty and a whole lot of hope 

I see that little bit of prayer 

I see the way you look so far past and deep there are no names left to tell
