Behind These Hazel Eyes - Cassadee Pope

Seems like just yesterday

You were a part of me

I used to stand so tall

I used to be so strong

Your arms around me tight

Everything, it felt so right

Unbreakable like nothing could go wrong

Now I can’t breathe

No, I can’t sleep

I’m barely hanging on

Here I am

Once again

I’m torn into pieces

Can’t deny it

Can’t pretend

Just thought you were the one

Broken up deep inside

But you won’t get to see the tears I cry

Behind these hazel eyes

I told you everything

Opened up and let you in

You made me feel alright for once in my life

Now all that’s left of me

Is what I pretend to be

So together but so broken up inside

'Cause I can’t breathe

No, I can’t sleep

I’m barely hanging on

Here I am

Once again

I’m torn into pieces

Can’t deny it

Can’t pretend

Just thought you were the one

Broken up deep inside

But you won’t get to see the tears I cry

Behind these hazel eyes

Swallow me then spit me out

For hating you, I blame myself

Just seeing you, it kills me now

Now I don’t cry

On the outside, anymore!

Here I am

Once again

I’m torn into pieces

Can’t deny it

Can’t pretend

Just thought you were the one

Broken up deep inside

But you won’t get to see the tears I cry

Behind these hazel eyes

Here I am

Once again

I’m torn into pieces

Can’t deny it

Can’t pretend

Just thought you were the one

Broken up deep inside

But you won’t get to see the tears I cry

Behind these hazel eyes
