sometimes, you wish you could make them see what you see.
sometimes, it works.
sometimes, it doesn’t.

Her Eyes
Music and Lyrics by Lianne Bernardo
Copyright Lianne Bernardo 2009
She looks in the mirror.
She looks, but doesn’t see herself.
When she looks, she stares right past her reflection
and beauty.
She looks in the mirror.
She looks, but it’s not what everyone sees.
When she looks, she stares right into her reflection
and dies.
Those eyes, those pretty, pretty, pretty, blue eyes.
How they cry.
And that smile, that pretty, pretty, pretty, white smile.
How it lies.
And it’s breaking my heart.
She looks at her hands.
She looks but doesn’t feel a thing.
She looks and sees only the rejection
and cruelty.
She bleeds through her hands.
She bleeds, but doesn’t let anyone see.
When she bleeds, she bleeds because of the rejection
and lies.
You know it doesn’t have to end this way,
It doesn’t have to end at all.
Those eyes, those pretty, pretty, pretty, blue eyes
don’t have to cry..
