Truth
I looked into your blue eyes
To see if there was truth
To see the way you really feel
To understand your mood
You veiled your eyes to shield me
Thought that I wouldn’t see
What you were about to tell me
Was not how it should be
Trying to protect me
Though you will break me heart
Telling me what I want to hear
Instead of tearing me apart
Your blue eyes can not save me
From what we know is true
That maybe we weren’t meant to be
And I am not for you
So just go on pretending
Covering up the lies
Hoping I won’t see it
The lie in your blue eyes
