Behind My Covered Eyes (2012-song)

I can take these roses turn them

Into my own weapon

Break me down

Feel the thorns dig into my hand

Write my name in blood

Along the dirt                 

Cause I’ve been

Broken

Shattered and alone, nowhere to run

I’ve been

Faking

My way through life, nowhere to hide

But here I am

Still holding on

*chorus*

 To the girl who once was gone

Nobody knew her name

Nobody cared enough to try

To find the girl behind my eyes

Locked in by the devils daughter

She didn’t wanna die for life

So instead she sat back and cried

Behind my covered eyes.

*end chorus*

I can take these pictures treat them

Like a map to show me

Who I am

Watch them form a puzzle piece that

Creates a bigger picture

In the end

Oh but I’ve been

Taken

Shattered and alone nowhere to run

I’ve been

Lying

About my truth I’m so confused

But here I am

Still holding on

*chorus*

To the girl who once was gone

Nobody knew her name

Nobody cared enough to try

To find the girl behind my eyes

Locked in by the devils daughter

She didn’t wanna die for life

So instead she sat back and cried

Behind my covered eyes.

*end chorus

But to the girl

Who once was gone

You can come back again

I’m ready to give in

For the sake of a better life

Stop hiding behind my eyes

It’s time to start over, begin.

 

Author's Note

I felt trapped by the girl playing me.

Can you put a link for the audio or even video of this? :)
A sad song with a very nice lyrics would bring a cool sound :)

[Be A Fighter]

If you can tell me how then sure haha :) this song doesn't have instrumentals yet though, only a vocal melody so the audio would be strictly acapella unless I manage to create acoustics to it soon.Thank you :)
