I use to remember these eyes
That I could drown myself in
Made me feel like I was someone
And seemed to believe in me

They belonged to a girl who cared
That I could turn to for help
That treated me like a good person
And drained the hate from me

But that was so long ago
And its so hard to remember
How it felt to be needed
And what I was needed for

Love is like hate to me
Causing me more pain then good
And I wonder that if ever
I was understood by you

Those warm eyes are gone forever
A distant memory I think I lost
And the eyes ypu have now
Seem to have forgotten that too

Maybe I saw something more
Letting myself fall for a lie
Only to be hurt by the truth
As it ripped away a dream

The same eyes that stared at you
I can't find in my reflection
Happiness spilled out with tears
Leaving only emptiness inside

A jagged soul that had faith
Still foolishly holding on
To dreams that have never come
Praying only to know happiness

Denied even such meager things
And so when I look to your eyes
I don't ask for pity from you
I ask for understanding

I want you to know what you did
By forgetting those moments
You took away my own eyes
Leaving ones filled with tears
