Would you look into my eyes?
Would you stare into my soul?
If you knew me at all you'd see that I am in control
Don't be scared for me
That's the person I would never want to be
Believe me when I tell you I'm grounded by the lessons I've been told
If you know me oh so well
You would have faith in who I am inside
The man I was is the man I am
There's no way this world could ever shake my pride
I've wasted so much time running from who I am inside
I know I have to face this
I've been to afraid to show everything I've ever known
But now I will embrace this
I will embrace this
[Chorus:]
Would you look into my eyes?
Would you stare into my soul?
If you knew me at all you'd see that I am in control
Some things were bound to change
I could never stay that way
With progress comes a price and that's a price that I will pay
I swear on my f*cking life
You may see me bend
But I will never break
I know I'll pay the price
For the chances that I take
You know me you know my heart you'll never see me fall apart
[Chorus:]
Would you look into my eyes?
Would you stare into my soul?
If you knew me at all you'd see that I am in control
Some things were bound to change
I could never stay that way
With progress comes a price and that's a price I will pay
