Don'T Fear My Eyes
Waiting never was my strength you know
And yet you thought somehow I would be here still.
There is no solace in your apathy
There is no peace in your cruelty
Although I know I felt the pain that way.
With long fingers reaching around my neck
You laid me down and I looked up to you.
When we talked amongst each other
You were not strong enough to take so much away.
But now you tower
And now you loom
And how I fear your touch
And how you fear my eyes.
