Somber Eyes
Somber eyes in the mirror
Can't be seen any clearer
Forgive me for the damage done
I never saw my unborn son
Wasting in my own pity
Walking the land a foreign city
Death due to my conviction
My own suffering inner affliction
Lullaby of sorrow and strife
A decision made on a life
My love made form as a son
What have I done
As they pour the dirt
My heart and I share the hurt
No more constant lies
As I sit here now with somber eyes...
