Be In Your Eyes
Wipe your pretty face, my dear
Hide the kids, you're full of fear
All that you are, you can't be near
All that you are could disappear
4AM, a cigarette
5AM, you're feeling it
All that was said you can't forget
Everything said was not a threat...
Memories like a camera
Capturing a photograph
Acting like a polygraph
Showing you where the heart is at...
What you give is not enough
Whatever you do, its never enough
All your heart an empty cup
All of the doors completely shut
I wanna be in your eyes again
Wanna be in your eyes and then
Press my lips upon your skin
Be the air that you are breathing in...
In between the flesh and bone
Under the skin you found a home
All that you saw that can't be shown
All of the scenes that can't be known
Think of it, your tummy aches
Thinking of it, you salivate
Lying in bed the mind creates
prettier lies, a pretty escape...
Dressing up with enemies
Making friends with your disease
Hitting the ground, you broke your knees
Hit so hard it kills your peace
I wanna be in your eyes again
Wanna be in your eyes and then
Press my lips upon your skin...
Breathe the air you're breathing in
taste the taste of heaven in
Where you end and I begin
I wanna be in your eyes again
Wanna be in your eyes and then
I wanna be your light again
I wanna see your light again
I wanna see you try again...
Trying again...
you weep...
the secret that you keep...
I wanna be in your eyes again
Wanna be in your eyes and then
Press my lips upon your skin...
Breathe the air you're breathing in
taste the taste of heaven in
Where you end and I begin
I wanna be in your eyes again
Wanna be in your eyes and then...
If heaven owns you
It won't disown you
But who can show you
If you won't live it through?...
The birds will come... the winds will blow...
But never steal the seeds you sow...
Hide the kids, you're full of fear
All that you are, you can't be near
All that you are could disappear
4AM, a cigarette
5AM, you're feeling it
All that was said you can't forget
Everything said was not a threat...
Memories like a camera
Capturing a photograph
Acting like a polygraph
Showing you where the heart is at...
What you give is not enough
Whatever you do, its never enough
All your heart an empty cup
All of the doors completely shut
I wanna be in your eyes again
Wanna be in your eyes and then
Press my lips upon your skin
Be the air that you are breathing in...
In between the flesh and bone
Under the skin you found a home
All that you saw that can't be shown
All of the scenes that can't be known
Think of it, your tummy aches
Thinking of it, you salivate
Lying in bed the mind creates
prettier lies, a pretty escape...
Dressing up with enemies
Making friends with your disease
Hitting the ground, you broke your knees
Hit so hard it kills your peace
I wanna be in your eyes again
Wanna be in your eyes and then
Press my lips upon your skin...
Breathe the air you're breathing in
taste the taste of heaven in
Where you end and I begin
I wanna be in your eyes again
Wanna be in your eyes and then
I wanna be your light again
I wanna see your light again
I wanna see you try again...
Trying again...
you weep...
the secret that you keep...
I wanna be in your eyes again
Wanna be in your eyes and then
Press my lips upon your skin...
Breathe the air you're breathing in
taste the taste of heaven in
Where you end and I begin
I wanna be in your eyes again
Wanna be in your eyes and then...
If heaven owns you
It won't disown you
But who can show you
If you won't live it through?...
The birds will come... the winds will blow...
But never steal the seeds you sow...
