The Heart Behind Those Eyes...

You look away- that smile dies

You're so confused- I hear your cries.

You try to explain- you try to believe

You know what to do- you try to leave.

Every word you say- strangles my heart

I try not to break- not to fall apart.

I just want to grab you- and make you see

This heart you own- inside of me.

Just turn around- as Happiness dies

Show me the Heart... behind those eyes.

I want to see- I need to know

The way it looks- before you go.

The words you say- conflict with the beat

I look through your eyes- so warm and sweet.

You want to stay- so, please, don't go

You're killing me- but I'll try not to show.

I want to sleep- inside your soul

You make me complete- you make me whole.

The beautiful rose- once proud to bloom

Now shedding it's petals- on top of Love's tomb.

I sit in the dark- with so many "Why's"

Just show me the Heart... behind those eyes.

Let me see- that dream we shared

Comfort me- I'm torn and scared.

I feel your tears- it's starting to rain

I lose myself- through all the pain.

I'm begging for you- just do this for me

Walk up to a mirror- so you can see.

Is anything left?- Is something alive?

Left there to struggle- while you take five?

Look deep inside- you know it's there

Under the smile- you use to wear.

Listen real close- to Love that cries...

Listen to the Heart... behind those eyes.
