Eyes Not Your Own
Look through the world with eyes not your own.
Sit atop a back with wings that have flown,
To a thousand new lands
Come hold these old cracked hands.
When you walk the world in someone else's shoes;
You realize how much of your life you choose.
You choose to be joyful or sad,
Or to be carefree or mad
And when you take back your own eyes
Look up to the skies
and you will see, you will truly see
Just what it means to really be free.
