Blue-Eyed Angel

Through the lies that shatter, the tears that gleam, Your eyes show the stories, the shadows unclean, You were mine to have, you were mine to dream, You were my spotless lies, my everything. Time wasn’t money, just as love wasn’t trust, Time was short and love was lust. Urges were many, to comply was a must, Goodbye, blue eyed angel, grind this thin wall to dust. Love was given and unreturned, Shadows cleared, lies were slurred, Truth was fought and visions blurred, Not love, not lust, not the single heart cured. Not but a memory, not but a name, Held fast to a girl with her head bowed in shame, So long gone but a voice can tame, Goodbye blue-eyed angel, only I was to blame.
