Faceless and nameless
the voices are shameless
they twist and contort me
and claim they are blameless
“You hold on to tightly
they leave you and rightly
you know you can’t make it
you can’t even fight me”
I try not to listen
to the constant admissions
but all that they say
is just part of the question
“Can’t you hear what they’re thinking
they’re mocking they’re taking
their time and enjoying
how pathetic you’re being”
Breath in breath out
but don’t make a sound
the silence is heavy and sharp
but I’m bound
“You know you can’t hide
we are always inside you
we are the only ones
holding you tonight”

Somehow they’re right
but still I fight
there has to be more
to this life than this strife

Green eyes don’t cry
smiling delight
see through the soul
they will haunt you for life

Green eyes don’t lie
open so wide
but don’t listen to close
or you’ll lose your mind

Green eyes burn bright
shining a light
constant companion
and only one left me tonight
