In Your Eyes

(Karianne Gabaldon)

This lyric is about a person just dropping everything they had in a friendship and leaving. Sisters once were now just a broken family.

(Verse 1) 
 
You asked me if I’d kill myself, 
I said not yet. 
But the truth of the matter is I’m already dead. 
I’m shattered into pieces like a wilted cigarette, 
And now my favorite game’s become Russian roulette. 
 
(PreChorus) 
 
And I know that you cared once, 
But now you don’t care anymore. 
And you whisked away my open sign, 
And then closed the door. 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Yeah, mama, can you hear my silent, soft screams? 
Daddy, can you listen in for my wind chime dreams? 
They weren’t there, 
They don’t care. 
Seems like innocence, 
In your eyes. 
 
(Verse 2) 
 
Deceitful, dizzy, daisy daydreams, 
Are playing in my head. 
It’s all coming like a movie scene, 
Where the actors are dead. 
And you, best friend, won the award for the best actress yet. 
How could you play me? 
Into thinking we were friends. 
 
(PreChorus) 
 
And I know that you cared once, 
But now you don’t care anymore. 
And what my sunny days once were, 
Are now a downpour. 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Yeah, mama can you hear me like a sprinkler at night? 
All my tears are drowning out what’s wrong and what’s right, 
No one cares, 
It’s not fair, 
Though it’s innocence, 
In your eyes. 
 
(Bridge) 
 
Everybody, look out for your neighbors, 
Look out for your crushes. 
People, look out for the only thing that seems to matter too much. 
Over there, 
And you stare, 
‘Cause it’s innocence, 
In your eyes. 
 
Hey, 
You drop me off a line at that one-way bus stop, 
Just to laugh at my underrated broken heart drop. 
Guess that’s fair, 
But I swear, 
It’s just innocence, 
In... 
In... 
In your eyes....
