Girl with Brown Eyes

When I was five our friendship came alive
Her and me, the girl with brown eyes
When we were ten we'd play pretend
Smile in mirrors
Images were clearer

Lucky to be in your campaign
Don't know when the smiles sustained
Proud to call us one and the same
Tell me when you forgot your name

I'm not proud of what comes next

Because I miss you
I love you
I wish you'd known I suffered too
I hate you
Can I wake you
Watch my world crumble into
Truth
The truth
I can finally breathe
I'm free from

When I was nine my grandmother died
She held my hand, the girl with brown eyes
Held me close and held on tight
In the moment I knew I was alright

Lucky to be in your campaign
Don't know when the screams became
Part of smiles
One in the same
Tell me when that person was made

I'm not proud of what comes next

Because I miss you
I love you
I wish you'd known I suffered too
I hate you
Can I wake you
Watch my world crumble into
Truth
The truth
I can finally breathe
I'm free from
You
And your truth
I can finally breathe
I'm free from

When you died
Was a long, long time ago
Precious lies
When you've lost your mind
Saying we're all fine
We hate you
The worst look was mine
"I hate you"

I don't know what to say
How could I hate my girl with brown eyes
But when I look you aren't the same
Because she died, that girl with brown eyes

Unknown she drowned in her despair
When was her last breath of air
Became a lifeless girl with no care
Not sure she was even aware

Lucky to be in your campaign
Don't know when the screams became
Part of smiles one in the same
Tell me when that person was made
