Behind Your Eyes

Have you ever noticed when the birds in the morning sing?
The tunes and melodies are like an orchestra of finely tuned precision strings

Have you ever noticed a cats eyes under the light of the moon?
They stand out like moving diamonds to some poor vertebrates doom

Have you ever noticed when you begin to doubt?
Doubting in others is easy, it’s doubt in yourself you should worry about

Have you ever heard the demons start to sing?
Do you want to dance to that song, sing the words they want you to sing?

Have you ever noticed the darkness behind your eyes?
Seen your reflection in the mirror and heard your mind tells you your lies.
