Eyelid

It was us.
It was we.
Now it's you.
Now it's me.
It was good.
It was right.
Now it's dead.
Now it's white.

I am waiting
Was always waiting
For you
To notice me.
I am waiting.
Now I wait.
Always waiting
For you.

I have a million eyes,
Two wings, I drink what you spill.
And you swat at me.
Carelessly.
Swat away.
Waiting there
On the wall
For you to care.
For you to care.
I have always waited...

It was one.
It was fun.
Now it's two.
Now it's done.
It was fate.
It was bound.
Now it's split.
Now it's drown.

I am waiting
Was always waiting
For you
To notice me.
I am waiting.
Now I wait.
Always waiting
For you.

I have a million cells,
Two of me, I shut out the sun.
And you blink me from view.
Oblivious.
Blink away.
Waitingly
In your eyes
For you to see.
For you to see.
I have always waited...

I have always waited
For you
To close your eyes.
