Lyric discussion by when.she.screams 

Have any of you actually seen the show Instant Star? I watch it all the time, it's one of my favorites.

Oh, and by the way, in an interview Alexz said that her brother wrote the song, not her.

Anyway, in the show it's quite obvious that her character wrote it about her father after learning that he was cheating on her mother.

"When I look in your eyes I don’t see mine..."

Isn't that a little obvious? I mean, the only way you would see your own eyes on someone else, is if you were looking at a parent or a sibling. At least, that's what makes the most sense to me.

But of course, I'm also very bitter when it comes to people automatically thinking that all songs are about 'romantic' relationships. I've completely had it with that idiotic assumption...

i so get you but for the "when i look in your eyes i don't see mine" part i always thought that it wasn't so much in the literal sense but that he was lying to her and kind of when you lie you don't look people in the eye so when she looked in his eyes she didn't see his because he was obviously lying about the whole cheating thing. love the show :D
