i liked you so much
but it was your pretty eyes
that caused me to fall

but i didn’t fall
‘cause you were right next to me
there, with open arms

so when you started
i was still blinded by you
even through the ache

the ache your hands made
forming bruises on my skin
letting my tears fall

the real pain you caused
was not from the blows you gave
but from your cold eyes

the boy that i’d known
my boy, with the pretty eyes
was gone forever

replaced with someone
that i didn’t even know
someone who was dead
