Give Me Your Eyes
Can I use your eyes
To see your life
To understand why
You are the way you are
To see why you hurt so much
Why your body no one can touch
Why your heart is shattered
And to you nothing matters
Can I use your eyes
To see inside your soul
To remind you of your glow
That you seem to have lost along the road
You choose not to share
Tell me why
I need to know
Trust I can care for you
I only need a one time show
Can I use your eyes
To help guide you
To a better life…
A better place…
Out from under this dark state
And into a world of love
You’ve been down for so long
Do you know which way is up
Wouldn’t you rather be on top
Your life doesn’t have to stop
If you would only let me use your eyes….
For you I could make things rights.
