The Wall In Your Eyes

As I gaze into your eyes
I see who you truly are
I see your soul deep inside
I see the love in your heart

In your eyes, I see the pain
Of recent love gone wrong
I see the walls built around your heart
Yes, the bricks used are very strong

But true love can break through
Bit by bit, tiny pieces start to fall
True love is the strength needed
Patience will break down the wall

In it's place will be my arms
Nothing can shake them
No one can cause you harm

Soon you will see
The sisters of fate watched
And they guided you to me

Your heart cried to me
through your eyes and tears
"Come take me away!
Calm my storm of fear!"

My eyes spoke to you silently
As I watched your tears fall
"Here I am, my love!
I will tear down that wall!"

Dawn Of Love

Light breaks through
and scatters the night
I look into her eyes
And her touch feels so right

My spirit wakes inside
My heart races with excitement
My soul spreads it wings
Her smile makes my spirit take flight

Could this be true?
Is this right?
My morning begins with you
My heart dances with you in sight

I see your pain and tribulation
But you look upon me and smile
I dont know why, but I give you elation

Your smile, your eyes for me
I dont know what it is you see in me
I see your beauty, even in pain
Your humbleness shows me you are not vain

Down to earth, you truly have class
You laugh at my dumb jokes
You smile at me and all pain has passed

A new day has dawned
A gift from above
Yes, this is a new beginning
This is the dawn of love

Hall Of Despair

I walk down the cold hall
People around only see pain
All they can do is watch tears fall

They cannot see the man before
They dont see how happy I used to be
Now all that is shown is tears
All that remains is pain and misery

As I walk down that dark hall
Others are feeling the pain
Like me, their tears fall
Some the same pain
Others are different

One factor is constant as you look in the rooms
They come in pain and despair
They try to heal their wounds
Society looks down on us
For all they see is the rage
They shout and scream in fear
"Lock him or her in a cage!"

They dont see how this person got here
They dont see how they used to be
It seems society doesnt care
They come to heal the mind's wounds
As they walk the hall of despair

At The Gates Of Forgiveness

I see the pain I caused you
I see the hurt in your eyes
I remember how I betrayed you
And how you saw through my lies

I left you for a lesser woman
Who I thought loved me
It was not who I thought she was
And love with her was not to be

But I came to you on bended knee
Asking for another chance
You heard my cry of sorrow
You saw how I paid the price
How I had no hope for tomorrow

You took pity on me and forgave me
Though you have another man
You deserve much better
Than what I ever gave

I'm sorry I caused you so much sorrow
Your friendship you freely give
It will be much brighter tomorrow
And you made me want to live

I thank you for your forgiveness
You truly are a queen
Your friendship is a gift
I am not worthy of your kindness
You still give my soul a lift
