be quiet (look at my eyes)

still in the making

 

Quiet, quiet now, look at me

Always silent through the tears

Backing away from what I fear

Never trying, forever giving up to you

 

Your hands around my neck

Choking me

Telling me you love me

You just want me to speak

 

Be quiet now and just listen

Listen to how I move

 To how I speak

And to how I act

There’s no other way

I can tell you

 

You say that you care for me

I've heard it all before

Not just from you but everyone else

Forcing me into this

You say it's for the best

Why don’t you believe me?

I do

Why don’t you just listen to how I live and breathe each day?

 

Be quiet now and just listen

Listen to how I move

How I speak

And to how I act

There’s no other way

I can tell you

 

 

Quiet, quite, quiet now

Just look into my eyes

Through the tears

And through these fears

I want you to see how I feel

I want you to be there for me

Not pushing me onto someone else

Rescue me

From you

I really like this, althought sad and raw with emotion.
