Not "Soft"

He told me to be quiet like soft brown eyes
Soft brown eyes?
Hun, I have blue eyes,
Cold and harsh like the crashing waves of the ocean.
But I'm sure that's not what he meant.
Be quiet like soft brown eyes?
No, brown eyes are filled with a passionate flame
How can one simply
"Be quiet like soft brown eyes?"
And why should I be quiet for you?
Why shouldn't I be loud for the sake of change
Why are eyes soft
When they are the window to the soul
And your souls are angry
Don't ask me to be quiet
And don't ask me to be soft
When fierce is all I've ever known.
