Through Those Eyes

Ian Parry


I seek a place, hidden in darkness 
Beyond the realms of tortured memories 

They said you kill, no guilt, no shame 
Momentarily insane 
My stomach turns, a look that burns 
The evil in everyone 

Through those eyes 
What lies beyond the distant light 
Through those eyes 
What horrors lie in store tonight 
Through those eyes 
Lord give me strength, to put it right 
Through those eyes 

It's make believe, a page, a story 
The killing time, a blaze of rage and fury 

As a child, abused, your trust, they used 
Momentarily insane 
God, I swear, a look that burns 
The evil in everyone
