Lying Eyes

(from Jou to Seto)

Be my friend,

Brother,

Lover…

Your eyes hold hatred

And your eyes lie.

I know only too well all that you hide

And the part of you that has died.

Twin chips of blue diamond ice

Burn a path

Right down inside your soul

To the hell you hold.

You think that pain

Is your prisoner,

But sweet baby blue eyes,

You've mixed it up…

That particular monster

Just eats you up heart and soul.

I've been keeping up on my homework.

I'm not the dumb mutt

Everyone seems to see

And I can read between the lines.

The tabloids tell

A Cinderella

Rags to riches tale,

But your eyes say otherwise.

I may be little more than a stray,

But I've been where you are,

Lost and alone

Trapped in the dark,

And I've survived.

It only takes one person

To see inside the frozen shell-

Someone with the courage to reach out

And watch hell divide.

You're not so tough.

You're just terrified to feel-

To be broken by emotion.

But I am strong and patient,

Though others think

I'm just hardheaded and impulsive.

And I know that my fire can

Melt all that ice away.
