Beyond the Blue Eyes
beyond the blue eyes
lies a child in denial
she walks around with such a frown
as her family treats her like a clown
she tries to display her love
as she reaches out to the one above
she wonders will he also steal her love
her tears is a token of all her fears
I reached out to her,
and said don't cry my dear
why do you have so many tears?
she said, I have been hurt all my life
and my life has been filled with so much strife
you reached out to me
and now I feel free
free to be me
I see the beauty inside
the beauty I use to hide
