Behind My Eyes

If you could see behind my eyes- you'd have the answer to all the "whys". Behind these eyes and streaming tears Lies the secret of a thousand fears... A thousand fears, A million tears, The heartbreak of my childhood years. The darkness trapped so deep within- kept hidden is the mortal sin. For life does not allow the truth to surface and remain aloof. A thousand fears, A million tears, The heartbreak of my childhood years. If only you could come to know the wondrous being here below, and unlock the secrets hidden here and hold my heart so near and dear. A thousand fears, A million tears, The heartbreak of my childhood years. But you can't know what can't be seen- what's buried forever in between... Those thousand fears And million tears- Those heartbreaks from my childhood years.
