Don't let them take the light being your eyes,
The light that reflects off the summer sun
The light from your favorite movie
The light in your eyes when your favorite song comes on.
Don't let them take the light behind your eyes,
It keeps your inner demons at bay
It makes your eyes shine bright and sparkle
It brings light to brighten your smile.
Don't let them take the light behind your eyes,
Regret and sorrow will wash over you
Your eyes become dull and expressionless
Your smile is no longer sincere.
It's harder to control your demons.
Don't let them take the light behind your eyes,
You'd be letting your demons win the war in your head
You'll become the liar you always feared of
You will never be the same.
Don't let them take the light behind your eyes,
They will win once you've gone too far
East you from the inside-out
Poison your mind
Destroy your thoughts.
Don't let them take the light behind your eyes,
You'll run out of tears to shead
Won't stop thinking about the thoughts in your head
Let people drag you down
Lose all interest in life.
Don't let them take the light behind your eyes,
"Oh, but my dear, they already have!
No one can save me now,
No one.
Don't even try..."
Don't let them take the light behind your eyes,
Once it's gone, it's gone
You can't get it back
You're in too deep
There's no going back now...
Don't let them take the light behind your eyes,
Therapy doesn't work anymore
You're always in your room
What's socializing?
Your music can't even save you now.
Don't let them take the light behind your eyes,
You already have, haven't you?
You can't hide your blood-shot eyes forever
Nor you scars
Or thinning frame...
Don't let them take the light behind your eyes,
The light that reflects off the summer sun
The light from your favorite movie
The light in your eyes when your favorite song comes on.
Don't let them take the light behind your eyes,
Don't let them win
You can win this war
Just please,
Don't let them take it...
Welp, there it is. I hope it's okay, it was kinda a one shot thing. I honestly didn't do any editing and I copied it from the papers I wrote it on so if there are any mistakes, sorry 😂
