The light in your eyes
Reflects all the lies
And now I see what it is you mean
You do not want me, never needed me
You never wanted to hold my heart
You push me around, you tear me apart
And all I want, I plead, I need
For you just to hold my hand
And wipe away these tears-
The scorn of your voice
It gives me no choice
And now you say what hate hides in your soul
That I was a tool, a doll, a fool
A childlike innocence that you could bruise
That you could beat, that you could use
And all I want, need, I need it
Is for you just to hold my hand
And wipe away these tears-
The sound of my cries
These tears in my eyes
You do not heed as you leave me now
Walk away now, I’m all alone now
You left me with this empty hole
Where once was my heart, where one was my soul
And all I ever wanted, the only thing I needed
Was for you to hold my bruised hands
And wipe away these hollow tears-
