nostatic at all...

Your eyes are looking thru me
and see me in a light that shines
from somewhere deep inside

your eyes show me hope where before
there was only slowly dying
fruit on the vine, left behind

your eyes flash with the fire
burning bright, so very bright
it hurts to look sometimes

your eyes belie a pain inside
left too soon and cast adrift
no bright stars to show the way

your eyes tell a story not yet cast
a passion play with spirits that
above all yearn to be free

You can hide but you can't run
From a sun always setting never letting
You catch your breath
Or mourn the death
Of dreams you never knew you had

Decisions made without you knowing
But its going to change things forever
Unless you call
Or try to stall
To read the cards or change your hand

No good choice or answer to
Everything we said and everything we did
So sad I never knew you before
Everything I said and everything I did

All the trappings, correctly named
Can't blame the ones around you
Was dead inside
I try to hide
Behind a full basket of toys and toil

No good choice or answer to
Everything we said and everything we did
So sad I never knew you before
Everything I said and everything I did

There's an easy way, and the highway
Turning in too early means
You're headed off track

When we're done I shake my shirt
Leave the hurt for another day
My heart beats loud
Happy but not proud
Finally feeling something in an empty spot

No good choice or answer to
Everything we said and everything we did
So sad I never knew you before
Everything I said and everything I did
