Eyes
Verse 1
I saw you but you looked away from me
I am not blind and neither are you
Then why do I feel like I have poor vision?
Maybe it's because I was blind-sided by reality
You let me into your home
Eventually into your bed
I foolishly believed that I was a part of your life
Verse 2
Some say that eyes are windows to one's soul
If that is true, then yours are dark and cold
They appeared to be warm and inviting
Now I see them as your tools of deception
I was starting to give you all of me
Instead, you took away what we could have been
Verse 3
Oh, poor pitiful me
I was taken for a ride, then cast out to sea
You appointed yourself as my master and commander
Directing me through some of my highs and lows
When the waters were still
Moments with you were refreshingly enjoyable
But when the waters rose
Our eyes were at different levels
Chorus
My eyes saw you as a decent person
As a thoughtful and caring man
I assumed your eyes saw me as an attractive person
As an inquisitive and open minded dude
Now my eyes see you as a shallow person
As a disrespectful and insensitive jerk
