Eyes Of A Child

Enter the light- let me see your face
Let me know that you're still there
Can you see it now in those shattered dreams
The depth into which you stare
Scale your thoughts as madness dawns see how far you'll fall
Reality and dreams collide the road of sanity is so small
Dark holds no secrets anymore
With the eyes of a child, you're the masterpiece of innocence
Through the eyes of life, there is so much you'll never see
Life burned away the heart within there is so much that one can bear
An eternity of love now dies away but there's no one left to share
In your heart you've carved an epitaph, an emblem of your soul
A chalice holds your bitter blood and the life that heaven stole
Cos life can't hold you, lost all those years your unfinished song
Cos life won't hold you
The strands of time they could be so strong.
Locked in a cruel place with your painful memories
There's no harder way to fall this hell no one wants to see.
We're all creatures of life - that the world can't let go
In the verses of time a journey we'll all learn to know
With the eyes of a child, you're the masterpiece of innocence
Through the eyes of life, there is so much you'll never see
With the eyes of a child
You are naked in your destiny
Through the eyes of the world now the angels are your enemy
