Light In Eyes
Lyrics
\#Verse Some walk with fire hidden low A glow within, a pulse they know It's not for show, it doesn't blind But lights the edges of the mind Others pass with empty gaze Lost in noise and shadowed days \#Pre-chorus They've never burned, so never yearn For embers they can't discern \#Chorus A candle deep Light in eyes What you see They tantalize If never had Nor ever seen No way to grasp What might have been A candle deep \#Verse Their hands reach out for plastic stars While we trace constellations far The weight of sight, the cost of knowing The pull of tides forever flowing Some hearts beat loud with questions asked Some minds stay still in comfort masked \#Pre-chorus To worlds that spiral, never touch One seeing all, one missing much \#Chorus A candle deep Light in eyes What you see They tantalize If never had Nor ever seen No way to grasp What might have been A candle deep \#Bridge Are those who see and strive to be Better served than those made empty When awareness brings its gravity And ignorance its cavity The growing possibility A curse on all who ask... "Maybe?" \#Chorus A candle deep Light in eyes What you see They tantalize If never had Nor ever seen No way to grasp What might have been A candle deep \#Outro The light inside Both gift and wound A torch we bear A weight assumed And sometimes in the deepest night We envy those without the sight
