You watch yourself in the mirror
Every night complaining about one more thing...

Hush little child
Your eyes vacant and stained...

The sound of the pendulum
Swinging back and forth...

A black kiss; a cold whisper.
Blood shot eyes; a deadly breeze...

And it was that tear that ran down your face that...
Someone to confined in, you said would they miss...

Eyes upon mine,
A deep sea of wonder...

Little girl, so young and fragile,
It's too much for you pure heart to hold...
