SOMEONE TOLD ME MY EYES WERE GREY TODAY
AS I WAS FEELING A BIT IN A HAZE

DO YOUR EYES REFLECT HOW YOU REALLY FEEL
SHADOWS IN A MIRROR OF THE PAST EMERGING STILL

WHY DO THESE THOUGHTS FOREVER HAUNT AND PROLONG
MAKING US LOOK AS IF WE DO NOT BELONG

THESE EYES OF GREY CAN NOT GO ASTRAY
MUST FOCUS ON THE TASK TO TURN THE BAD THINGS AWAY

THESE EYES OF GREY HAVE SEEN SO MANY LIES
WITH QUESTIONS LEADING TO SO MANY WHYS

WHO IS REALLY BEHIND THESE EYES OF GREY
AND WILL SHE EVER FIND HER WAY

THEY SAY THE EYES ARE WINDOWS OF THE SOUL
LOOK INTO HER SOUL ONLY THEN YOU WILL KNOW

THE PAIN THAT GROWS INSIDE OF HER NEVER ENDS
SHE JUST WANT TO BE FREE TO MEND

SOMEONE TOLD HER SHE HAD EYES OF GREY
AS HER SOUL SLOWLY DECAYS

THE BRIDGE IS BREAKING UNDER HER FEET
SEEMS AS LIFE FOR HER DOES NOT MISS A BEAT

SHE WALKS AMONG US AS NORMAL AS CAN BE
THE PAIN DEEP INSIDE HER WHERE NO ONE CAN SEE

SHE HOLDS ON BY A THREAD UNRAVELING FASTER THAN PLANNED
SHE JUST HOPES THE REST OF HER LIFE CAN FINALLY BEGAN

SOME ONE TOLD HER SHE HAD EYES OF GREY TODAY
SHE DARES NOT TO LOOK INTO HER OWN EYES SO SHE LOOKS AWAY

WHAT IS IT THAT HAS SUCH A HOLD OF HER SHE CAN NOT LET GO
SHE WANTS TO BE STRONG SHE WANTS TO GROW

SHE LOOKS INTO THE MIRROR TO GAZE UPON HER EYES OF GREY SLOWLY THEY SEEMINGLY SUBDUE
AS SHE NOTICES THAT THEY ARE EVER SO SLIGHTLY CHANGING TO THEIR TRUE SHADES OF BLUE
