DAWN OF EYES

the night has a 1000 eyes
little peepholes in the curtains of the sky
with the wink of a blink in a solar roller rink
in a smile of light years from a universe of piers
as I lay me down to my cosmic dreams
the quantum reality is larger than it seems
traveling through space and time, forgotten
a parallel universe by face, a riddle within a rhyme
celestial voices echo from the past
a million years they found me at last

 eyes, the dawn of eyes are near
each word you speak they hear
they know your darkest fears
dreams, your dreams are wild
a woman takes your child
your life moves out of style

 I can't grasp the images of my perspective
moving side by side in reality, a mental maze playing with my mentality
try to hold on to the images long enough to understand
that who I thought I was isn't really who I am
somewhere I lost the key
the keys of my universe, the keys that could set me free
perpetual motion waving through oceans
lost myself through a hidden devotion
emotions drained me till I was dry
and then I found myself gazing distantly into the dawn of eyes

 eyes, the dawn of eyes are near
each word you speak they hear
they know your darkest fears
dreams, your dreams are wild
a woman takes your child
your life turns to the mild

 eyes, the dawn of eyes are near
each word you speak they hear
they know your darkest fears
dreams, your dreams are wild
a woman takes your child
your life moves out of style

 eyes, the dawn of eyes is here
each word you think they feel
is the illusion really real
