Twilight Eyes

So your scared of leaping off the edge
Protected by your precious insecurities
Change your mind more than Optimus Prime
Your not that innocent but you say you have purity
We did a loop, back at the start again
Our hearts are one, I hope it doesnt part again
We can me this work, keep hope alive
Dont give up on me, lets take this dive

I can see it in your twilight eyes
Dont say a word, no replies
Sleep well tonight my love, and give it your all
I'll be in your dreams, I wont let you fall

Whisper your heartache in my ear
Make it known and make it clear
What makes you so damn sure
That Im just like him?
What's your reason
To compare me to the rest of them?
Dont force this on yourself, dont make our love decay
Please dont wonder off and stray
Thats when we lose and death will bloom
To lead our love into its tomb
Everytime I start to mope
I look in your eyes, dont tell me there isnt hope

So look at me with twilight eyes
Make me find truth in the lies
And my soul it screams and cries
"Please dont leave me paralized"
All my tears and blood has dried
Coping with the fact I tried
I had never realized
Just how bad it'd hurt my pride
I have to see if the sun will rise
In your twilight eyes
