Black Eyes

Some say I'm far away..
From the shadows that feed on my pain and disease,
Carve my heart in parts..
like the hollow inside, you find it empty and mean,
You can't save me now..
Feel the horror that bleeds, you taste it just like a dream,
Was I a mistake?..
Did you hate what's within? you beat me down like a sin,

I have opened to black eyes,
Burning waters from the deep,
Secrets from the underneath,
I still cry when I'm smiling,
And still scream when I'm silent..

Burn my name again...
In the trouble between I sense the dead breaking free,
Cut my face in two...
They smell the small and the weak, forgive if I can't begin,
Drain my veins again...
All the scars that are seen are covered by my cracked skin,
Beat my spine to dust..
So this crippled, hidden apparition can find it's ending.
