I see you clearer than you see your reflection

I could have loved you
Deeper, harder, faster than you're used to
I could have held you
During the pain you're going through
I could have found you
Lost in your head, in a mental cage

But you pushed me away
Because you're afraid
Afraid to be seen
Afraid of what that means

But I still see you
Truer, sharper, cleaner than your mirrors do
I still feel you
Even far apart like I'm part of you
I still hear you
Even in the words you're too scared to say

But you pushed me away
Why do you push me away?
