Green Eyes
when he told me the news that fateful night in October
I knew there was only one path I could choose, now that your life was over
I never thought you would break my heart
I never thought you would be my enemy's bride
I never thought we would fight on different sides
I never thought I would tear your life apart
you and your husband lay murdered on the floor
but somehow your son survived
the spitting image of his father
but with your green eyes
I never thought that you would be the subject of a prophecy
now you've left this world, but you will live on inside of me
please believe me, I was only an ignorant messenger
I never meant to play this role, your unknowing executioner
as I lost my breath crying to the heavens that night
I swore I would face any danger to help make things right
so I'll embrace these memories, embrace this pain
make sure that your sacrifice was not in vain
and I know that until the day I die
I will always be haunted by your green eyes
