Eyes all around me
Watching from the outside
I'm in my world
Hurting in my way
Words that hit my heart
But I'm alone
Echoes of the past
No one cares
Another mess-up
The onlookers do nothing
Except keep their eyes on me
I know people don't care too much
When I say something, they turn away
My sight is clouded
Filled with an emptiness
That kills my emotions
I try to turn away from those who wish to hurt me
But as soon as they cry for help
I'm right back at their side
Auras filled with a burst of color
Mine is a dull gray
Oh, pureness comes with a price
One I pay for dearly
Doing right for those around me
When do I get my turn?
I never have met my soulmate
But I know they hate me
Who wouldn't?
Sneers and swords pointed towards me
Words filled with malice
Who would take this broken girl?
My eyes are filled with tears
Waiting to break the surface
Eyes, eyes, eyes
They are so unreliable
But we trust them more than anything
I am no exception
Eyes, eyes, eyes
EyEs, eYeS, EYES
They're surrounding me
My thoughts aren't my own
But no one cares
My heart is ripped out
Still beating in your hands
Yet you still expect me to stay silent
Be the good little girl
Acting like nothing is wrong
While my soul dies
Look past your selfish eyes
And see that I'm a person too
See that the colors that cover me
Don't mean I sin
The flag I'm so proud of
It doesn't mean I'm proud of their faults
I'm proud of what I can do
But they see me as another one
They hate me
Just because of the place I live
How I love
I can't do this!
There is no reason for hate
We are people
Plain and simple
But does that matter to them?
Of course not!
I'm not like them
So I'm ostracized
Can you hear me?
Can you see me?
I am a different breed
Not another person to take the soils of the earth
Not another to make fun of what I don't know
I cried
Hearing the news
What have we become?
Putting our own values and morals before others
Why can't we wake up from this never-ending nightmare?
Where only the kings are respected
And those like I are put to the wayside
Eyes closed to the problems we create
Clouded with human stupidity
Every scene
Every moment
Are all hallucinations of our minds
Seeing things that aren’t there
We are ignorant to the way of the world
We push the past and present away
Flying colors that were symbols of hate
Letting corruption fester and grow
Oh god, I can feel it coming
The reckoning is fast approaching
All prodded by my eyes
