Don’t Look Away

In my chest

There’s a ticking noise

Like some kind of bomb

Made by little boys.

I watch the time go by

And I think my time is running out.

To make you decide

That I’m the one you can’t live without.

Stare at me forever

I’ll be beautiful.

 

In your eyes.

There’s a sun.

There’s a time I feel I’m the only one.

In your eyes

Oh in your eyes,

I’m not afraid.

Don’t look away.

 

In this day

There’s a broken hour

Like some kind of map

To a broken place.

I watch the rain dry up

And head into the clouds.

Don’t let your love dry up

Make me cry out loud.

Stare at me forever.

I’ll be beautiful.

 

In your eyes.

There’s a sun.

There’s a time I feel I’m the only one.

In your eyes

Oh in your eyes,

I’m not afraid.

Don’t look away.
