The Brightest Eyes

Under a crooked palm tree, I’m lying in the grass wondering what life will be
I know it will be hard, but I’ve got heart

Set me stray, set me stray like a dog
Send me off to this world alone

I never knew much about family, mom and dad never got along. Brother and Sister died before they knew my name

Send me off to this world alone, with a fire in my heart
Give 100 percent, get thrown to the curb

I’ll learn to see these days, in a shadow, in the dirty streets, in the alleyways

Look at me, they could have been so much more
With the brightest eyes, looking back has never been so hard

It was all a game, with every move I make follows a consequence

Hope, the only thing keeping me going
Hope’s the only thing I ever had
