The Boy In Your Eyes - Pati Yang

From a distance you look so familiar

Like a figurine moving still

Feels like this time

You have walked too far

And I can’t see your tears

When things couldn’t get any better

She leaves you and you have to let her

'cuz there’s always time

We’re not even back where we’ve started

I am wading in screams but I am silent

Waiting for tides

Look what you’re doing to me

That’s not what heaven should be

I am alone

Do we dare end this war

Why don’t we bury our swords

We’ll be judged from above

I’ve been seeking friends

But my friends are sick

They say

A man likes to run —

So girl

If the kid in you still

Dares to climb a dead tree

'means there’s light in your eyes

You need life in your arms

When things couldn’t get any better

She leaves you and you have to let her

The sea will heal the cuts

We’re not even back where we started

He’s resting my head on your wires

The boy in your eyes

Look what he’s doing to me

That’s not what heaven should be

I am alone

Do we dare end this war

Why don’t we bury our swords

We’ll be judged from above

Let the good times roll

Tonight sun shines twice

Let the good times roll

If you let there be time

Look what you’re doing to me

That’s not what heaven should be

I am alone

Do we dare end this war

Why don’t we bury our swords

We’ll be judged from above

Look what you’re doing to me

I’m my own enemy

On your shield

Do we dare end this war

Why don’t we bury our swords

We’ll be judged from above
