Her Mothers Eyes (Lyrics)

Lyrics for a song i wrote for my former band Charlie Brown Syndrome. If anyone is interested in hearing the song send me your email address and i'll send you an MP3.

No glass half full for Charlie

she has her Mother's eyes

she wears a poor disguise

No wonder she wakes with no conviction

when her dreams had held her high

her heartbeat hands inside a hollow cage

So she waits for life formalde-hiding in a jar

on a shelf where people come and go but never stay

so she waits, a lightbulb growing darker with the day

she searches for the strength to take away the grey

Behind her broken mirror

she searches for her smile

she catches her reflection and asks it why

Her life must be so empty

behind her Mother's eyes

she waits for a reply but it won't arrive

So she waits for life formalde-hiding in a jar

on a shelf where people come and go but never stay

so she waits, a lightbulb growing darker with the day

she searches for the strength to take away the grey
