lyrics

Sun it came slow like a ship in the night
Hovering only to offer it's light for a while
Only a while
Waking up lonely she stretched out her arms
Only to find what she already knew to be gone
Long gone

The neighbourhood started their day
Nightmares shifted and ran out the way
As the mundane stepped forward, ticking off lists
Short, sharp, numb pain dragged her on by the wrists

Passing politely her fair weathered friends
Ever so slightly she thinks she might be one of them
Then again
Tapping her toes to the clock on the wall
Everything aches
How did she end up so small
In spite it all

It's all in the eyes
It's all in the eyes
And it takes a thousand tiny lies
All in the eyes

Checks her reflection, it can't be her own
Looking more closely reminds her of someone she knows, or used to know.
No one to argue she talked to herself
Only to find that it hinders her more than it helps
It doesn't help

It's all in the eyes
It's all in the eyes
And it takes a thousand tiny lies
All in the eyes

It's all in the eyes
It's all in the eyes
And it takes a thousand tiny lies
All in the eyes
