Dead Eyes (On Ocean Tides)
Dead eyes swallow me whole
As I take in the night
Kissing me softly, killing me all the while
The stares are so cold
The strength is so bold
I remember when I was a boy, I used to dance so happily
Now I just stare out the window, gazing at the rain
Falling down, down, down
Hitting cement like tears falling from the sky
Never lose your purity
You can be happy, always
The sea washes over me, gives me thoughts of peace.
