WHY?

I see the pain in your eyes

I see the tears go down your cheeks

I see that frown on your lips and

The rise of angry fists

 

Oh why oh why

Did it have to be this way?

I know I did wrong

But not the reason

 

Oh why oh why

Do you get this way

Every time the winds seem to sway?

 

The rain falls and I cry

Cry the tears of my own Red sea

Deep down I want to swear

I hurt but I know you care

 I know you love me

Your just angry

 

Oh why oh why

Did it have to be this way?

I know I did wrong

But not the reason

 

Deep down I want to swear

I hurt but I know you care

 

Please tell me what to do

Lead me to the right

Show me what you want

I see the pain in your eyes

I see the tears go down your cheeks

I see that frown on your lips and

The rise of angry fists

Another oldie written a couple years back. Not as good as my recent writes...I think.

I like the imagery of this piece:

I see the pain in your eyes
I see the tears go down your cheeks
I see that frown on your lips and
The rise of angry fists


I also like the repetitive use of "oh why oh why."

Nice work! :)
