Behind closed eyes

About what everyone is missing in their lives. About waking up.

Behind closed eyes
Behind locked hearts
Stands a someone
Holding two shiny stars.
Behind closed eyes
Behind stamped ground
Lies a person
Who for you has drowned.
Behind closed eyes
Behind jammed doors
Cries a girl
Who stood on her feet
When she got thrown on the floor
Behind closed eyes
Behind chained windows
Is a sleepless soul
With stains of gold.
Behind closed eyes
Behind those walls
Is a person who would
Forsake their life for
Yours.
