Through Another's Eyes
Have you ever stopped to wonder if the sky seemed any bluer,
Or if happily ever after could be any truer,
If you were seeing through eyes other than the ones that you were?
Or have you ever asked yourself, "How am I gonna make today
Better than it ever was before I ever was this way,
Before I watched my life just fucking walk away?"
Yeah, I see how hard it is,
To keep on pushing through this part of this,
But if I don't who's gonna 'ppreciate this darkness?
My blue sky turned to red,
The darkness fills my head,
Put this life to bed.
The sun rains down on darkened skies
But it seems so blue through another's eyes
And all I can ever say's "I tried"
But I don't wanna see the light
'cause all it ever is is a lie
How could I ever sleep at night
I don't wanna be blind
Or look through another's eyes
'cause maybe I'm the only one to realize
That somebody has to know how hard it is
And still wanna push through this part of this
To appreciate the darkness
They say that ignorance is bliss
But is it better than this
To not know what's amiss?
