Through My Eyes

With my thoughts astray I still hear you say that our fight is over
In credulity you played tricks on me — and it led us nowhere
What on earth you think made you sure again — and in fact so clean and sober
You suggested me — I cannot believe — it’s not nearly over
All letdowns wear off in time and fade eventually
Was it ignorance, which hollowed out my strength — meaningless and empty?
Trust without a doubt that’s what pulled me down and now it offends me
Treacherously, it seems to me so slippery in my eyes
Finally I can see so differently through my eyes
What enticed my mind — made me numb and blind — left me weak and broken?
I will not fulfill what you expect from me — this game is not nearly over
Used me, choked me, but never broke me
Shook me, disgraced me — never break me … now
You leave me now … alone I realize it’s different through my eyes …
What enticed my mind made me numb and blind
Left me weak and broken?
I will not fulfill what you expect from me
This game is not nearly over
