My eyes

MY EYES (E A D G B E)

My eyes, my eyes are burning. Looks like the earth is sinking. Feels like my chest is splitting.

I want to dive down so deep I forget what I feel like. Find out what darkness tastes like.

Just taking what we can. You hold my heart in your hands.

 

Woke up again this morning. I thought it would get better. There’s less than I remember.

My eyes, my eyes keep thinking. Why won’t they mind their business? I’m pressed like petals in an empty book.

Just hanging on to what is left.

Just hanging on to what I am. What I am.
