To Behold
You fall for every lie on your traitorous tongue
You learn them by heart
But what cruel fate such as mine when I see your eyes?
Your eyes say a million of words
Your mind muffles its screams in a billion ways
Yet I still hear the words from your traitorous tongue
The pain of it was always there,
But I see the tragedy of it now
For all the things that force you to smile,
Nothing hides the way your eyes move to my shadow,
Nothing hides the way you beg to find yourself in me
Forever your admirer, I see you hide your heart
Compelled to always look at you,
I feel what you do
I share your fate, beloved
I share your reflection too
So how does it feel to know that,
I suffer your tragedy just as much as you do
