The Smoke in Your Eyes...

The Smoke in Your Eyes…

Sometimes I see the fumes,
They cloud your eyes
Something’s boiling upstairs
You feel blocked off to me
Your shoulder feels cold
And the tension seems old
But there it stays with you

Sometimes I can’t tell if it’s time
When your mood finally catches aflame
I try not to think about it, to let you be
But I can see the smoke
It’s right there in your eyes
And I just don’t know
When… when will it become worse?

There is great concern for you
Your wellbeing, your sense of seeing
The filter in my eyes sees blue
But I know that red is breeding within you
Up, down, the mood goes awry
And I feel a burst in you
Almost like the clouds let loose
And the thunder rumbles within
I see your sin
Just as I see…
The smoke in your eyes
