This song is Mel’s view on both her son Spencer’s death and Jesse’s leaving her. Mel is a photojournalist and uses pictures as her “lens” to remember the past
[MEL]
When you walked out, you don't know how scared I felt
For twenty years, you've had my heart, we've barely spent time apart
Now all I can do is try living life without you
And out of the blue, I see a new point of view
Looking through this lens
I see a version of me who's alone, but slowly
Finding who I am
Out on my own again
Don't know how our story ends
I have my pride, and it seems I've always tried
To get you to be more like me, that isn't fair, I'm sorry
I make demands, always try to force your hand
Maybe you were right when you left that night
'Cause looking through this lens
Out on my own again
Maybe our story ends
Looking through this lens
