I still remember your eager eyes
I wasn't there, but they burned into me
I exist in your very first strides
Walking and gazing the world, free
Want the whole wide world for you
cnd you got it all
My tongue is bitter from repetition
cnd the words don't mean a thing
c dark and lifeless winter
c dead and silent spring
We razed the only inspiration
Strangled the sparrow's Song
I know you'd weep for me
But my hope is gone
There is a voice inside my conscience
Trembling, frail, and haunting
It whispers tales of hoping
cnd leaves me only wanting
The same sword that we fall on
We can wield to test our fate
With a child's hope, and a beating heart
Left to find our way
Race towards the sun, my crippled pride undone, and all that makes me real, secedes to stone and steel
If they took what I had, and did what they did to you
I would cry a thousand tears, and I would be heartbroken too
When there's no more air to breathe, and I've screamed my throat dry
I will remember your eager eyes
