Brave Eyes

by Hopelessly Devoted to You   May 25, 2009


I would've been there,
protecting you from the worst,
I would've been there,
calming you before you burst,
yet you still broke me,
built me up then knocked me down,
your words, they hurt,
through inside and out,
and it's been for me,
by far, a brand new low,
they bring me every night,
to places no one should go.

But I wish you were here,
as you killed me inside,
so I could see,
those brave eyes,
and you could see me,
and tell me we died,
as I looked into,
those brave eyes.

Although you hurt me,
I will never regret,
the joy you once brought,
but never bring again,
you pulled my hollow heart,
far beyond my widest smile,
to a place dreams couldn't reach,
and cut short by a mile,
a place I never before knew,
that existed in myself,
filled with all amazing,
more than words could ever tell.

But I wish you were here,
as you killed me inside,
so I could see,
those brave eyes,
and you could see me,
and tell me we died,
as I looked into,
those brave eyes.
