In Your Eyes

You’d finally found your footing,

You were finally making your mark,

The little engine that could,

Was letting his steam out in your heart.

 

And then from their lips,

And then from their lips,

 

It got taken away,

Build another ending it’s not too late,

Keep this going, keep this alive,

You belong in this world, with the fight in your eyes.

It got taken away,

But you’re stealing it back, it’s not too late,

Keep this going, keep this alive,

You belong on that stage, with the light in your eyes.

 

You’d finally felt okay.

There was safety in their approval,

But their smiles faded,

The darkness came not later but sooner.

 

And from their lips,

From their lips,

 

It got taken away,

Build another ending it’s not too late,

Keep this going, keep this alive,

You belong in this world, with the fight in your eyes.

It got taken away,

But you’re stealing it back, it’s not too late,

Keep this going, keep this alive,

You belong on that stage, with the light in your eyes.

 

I can’t wait to see,

Where this is going.
