Judging Eyes

Step after step
I hear pain in my cries
So long have I wept
Away from judging eyes

They prick and poke
Chip your heart with lies
Until now I never spoke
Watch my knuckles fly

Their blood is cold
From a heart that pumps ice
This argument is old
But my cuts are precise

To you your heart fed
I’m sorry that it’s not warm
I must leave you dead
I see your judging eyes scorn
