Gazing into his brilliant blue eyes Telling stories of despair and sadness The flame has burned out As a part of him has died These eyes have dried out They can cry no more And I stand off to his side As his eyes burn through my soul Like headlights breaking through Shattering the darkness And the stories these eyes tell They make me break down and cry If he can't cry, then I will These emotions, thrown into careless words Sung with so much passion it hurts to smile The sadness plagues his "normal" life The feelings of self-worthlessness Played heavily upon the ivory keys My God, what kind of life is this? Will he let me stay here by his side? I'll cry his pain just to be with him He'll give up everything just to be accepted He gives so much with nothing received No matter how depressed, he'll wear a smile for you Just for you 'Cause he told me he loves you He wrote what he could not say He sang what he could not write He played what he could not sing And his fingers fell heavily upon the ivory keys tonight The notes hit such a deep part of me I cannot stop crying, I can't stop thinking These words are choking me I'm drowning in his eyes What an ocean to lose yourself in You drown, you cannot escape this reality What stories his eyes can tell If you take the time to read them What pain they can make you feel
