One Would Never Know...
That The Casual Grin Was Totally Forced
I am finally posting this picture of Tim in happier times, because one would never know that the man inside the smiling facade was a troubled, desperately unhappy young man. The Fortiers supplied this photo as one of the trial exhibit pictures and it leaves me feeling sad. He had so much potential, but he threw it all away.
No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes.
No one knows what it's like
To be hated
To be fated
To telling only lies.
But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
I have hours, only lonely.
My love is vengeance
That's never free
No one knows what it's like
To feel these feelings
Like I do
And I blame you.
No one bites back as hard
On their anger
None of my pain and woe
Can show through.
But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be.
I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free.
When my fist clenches, crack it open
Before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me some bad news
Before I laugh and act like a fool.
If I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat
If I shiver, please give me a blanket
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat.
No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes.
The Who:
Behind Blue Eyes.
