What My Eyes Show Me
I am afraid of what my eyes show me
They show me violence instead of peace
But true love is what i wish to see
They trick me
They deceive me
In relationships they blind me
They make my heart stone
Because of them, to me real love is unknown
I try not to love what my eyes see
Because later i realize it's not what it use to be
I try to follow my heart and what it feels
But these deceiving eyes store feelings using a tight seal
Tomorrow will be longer, but my heart will grow stronger
And it'll someday be free, but until that day
I am afraid of what my eyes show me
