Dead Doll Eyes

Dead doll eyes are something I have
because of the innocence I can never get back
I have something most girls lack
The ability to twist and turn my soul black

In this darkness deep within my eyes
Can you see the horror and lies
Can you see how I'm confined inside
To myself, all alone
darkness to hate
deep to the bone

In these dead doll eyes the light was taken
Yes, by surprise
The light is something I lack
Something I'm trying so hard just to get back

The light will never be as bright
never like before
but something a little less than before
a simple shimmer and nothing more
Enough shimmer where you can see
The truth in me
Of what I used to be
Of what I can
And what I'm trying to be again

You know Its hard
Because of where I've been
What I've been through
But the shimmer is coming to
As these dead doll eyes are fading too
