In the Eyes of My Friends Lyrics

I don't want you to look at me though the eyes of a stranger
Because you might come to realize that I am stranger
Than a fish that never fries, than an eye that never cries
Than people who swear up and down that they have never liedRegardless, insecurities that others may perceive
Are benign in the eyes of my friendsI don't need you to see me flailing at my nervous habits
Each one taunting me for being unable to stab it
Digging holes inside my head about what I should have said
Wishing I could find an answer or a little to shedRegardless, insecurities that others may perceive
Are benign in the eyes of my friendsI don't want you to always know exactly how I feel
I need your help to weather what the epicenter deals
When doubt is held at bay, but the surface rubs away
The sun is shining everywhere, but I can't find a rayRegardless, insecurities that others may perceive
Are benign in the eyes of my friends
