Through your eyes
I am different
Through your eyes
I am whole
In your eyes I saw
Love
All the things I didn't deserve

You pleaded me to listen
Told me to see
I was worth it, you said
You'd always love me

Why couldn't you understand
I am impossible to love
The darkness all around me
It's all I'll be able to hold

The time ticks away
Faster than before
I'll be free soon
I won't have to suffer any more

Through your eyes
I am sinless
Through your eyes
I am pure
In your eyes I saw
My scars
All the things you didn't deserve

I wish you could see
That in my darkness
You were my only light
Never losing grip,
Holding me tight
Your hands, though
Couldn't hold me back
I'm sorry for this
The lights are fading to black
Don't blame yourself
It wasn't your fault
I'm the broken masterpiece
No one hung on the wall
The time is running out
The pills are taking their toll
Don't hate me for this
You were always my first call

Through your eyes
There was hope
Through your eyes
There was faith
In your eyes I saw
Pain
The last emotion on my last day
