The Boy In Your Eyes

Yang Pati

From a distance you look so familiar
like a figurine moving still
feels like this time 
you have walked too far
and I can't see your tears

When things couldn't get any better
she leaves you and you have to let her
'cuz there's always time

we're not even back where we've started
I am wading in screams but I am silent
waiting for tides

Look what you're doing to me
that's not what heaven should be
I am alone
do we dare end this war
why don't we bury our swords
we'll be judged from above

I've been seeking friends
but my friends are sick
they say
a man likes to run - 
so girl,
if the kid in you still
dares to climb a dead tree
'means there's light in your eyes
you need life in your arms

When things couldn't get any better
she leaves you and you have to let her
the sea will heal the cuts
we're not even back where we started
he's resting my head on your wires
the boy in your eyes

Look what he's doing to me
that's not what heaven should be
I am alone
do we dare end this war
why don't we bury our swords
we'll be judged from above

Let the good times roll
tonight sun shines twice
let the good times roll
if you let there be time

Look what you're doing to me
that's not what heaven should be
I am alone
do we dare end this war
why don't we bury our swords
we'll be judged from above

Look what you're doing to me
I'm my own enemy
on your shield
do we dare end this war
why don't we bury our swords
we'll be judged from above
