Eyes of a Child
Time and time again I hear you speak
Spouting and spitting your misguided bigotry
I've grown and thought
Everything you said, I bought
Hate-filled eyes and hate-filled lives,
A child's love is covered in lies
Oh my dear, heart of gold,
Honest lives and values unsold
Living and giving
Kind and forgiving.
I can't help but feel this is all too familiar
Polar opposites and yet so similar
Living confused and walking towards the unknown
The words they say and the feelings they have shown
I cannot comprehend the differences between the two
Which should I believe? What is correct to do?
I've lived through two lives and two sets of eyes
I've seen through all your misleading lies
Finally I realize that for you two, this is all a game
because you two are a single entity; the exact same
I thought you were different, I really tried
Close-minded and yet so terrified
Your love is shown only to me
yet you're outspoken about hate and partiality
Change is imminent no matter what
I finally understand my life, but
What path shall I follow?
One filled with love or the other, sorrow?
