Analysis of Yourself
Did you see yourself,
When you were wrong,
Did you see yourself
Or wonder where you belong,
Did you see yourself,
When you act a fool,
Did you see yourself,
Or wonder if it was cruel,
Did you see yourself,
Only when you were good,
Did you see your self,
Or somehow misunderstand,
Did you see yourself,
When you were only kind,
did you see yourself,
Or did it slip your mind,
See yourself,
As others do,
With your eyes,
Just look through......................BAD-Mc<3
