Behind Closed Eyes
I close my eyes and all I see
Is the memory of you walking away from me
I open my eyes and all I feel
Is the pain you inflicted, my hurt revealed
I miss the light in your eyes
And the joy in your smile
I miss the love in your touch
The comfort of your hugs
You left me here bleeding
A sin life keeps repeating
It's like a game fate plays
Build me up hIgh and toss me in the waves
Flailing in waters way over my head
My eyes reflecting whats been left unsaid
Lungs filling with my salty tears
I'm letting go, after all these years
You see my lifeless body on the ground
You grab the note without a sound
Late at night you read it aloud
Grief envelopes you like a cloud
'To my beloved, I have to say
It's all your fault I've gone away
You tore me up and left me to die
Now tonight I'll watch YOU cry
Is the memory of you walking away from me
I open my eyes and all I feel
Is the pain you inflicted, my hurt revealed
I miss the light in your eyes
And the joy in your smile
I miss the love in your touch
The comfort of your hugs
You left me here bleeding
A sin life keeps repeating
It's like a game fate plays
Build me up hIgh and toss me in the waves
Flailing in waters way over my head
My eyes reflecting whats been left unsaid
Lungs filling with my salty tears
I'm letting go, after all these years
You see my lifeless body on the ground
You grab the note without a sound
Late at night you read it aloud
Grief envelopes you like a cloud
'To my beloved, I have to say
It's all your fault I've gone away
You tore me up and left me to die
Now tonight I'll watch YOU cry
