Can you see?

Have you ever seen my eyes
They way they darken
The dying of the light

Do you ever look through the glass
See all my mistakes
Starting with my first breath

I want a life without the mystery
I want something that I can see

Do you see my smile
The shifting and twisting
Trying to hold up a lie

Do you see my soul
The light that wants out
Tortured by the loss of control

When will my time come
Sick and tired I stand numb
