If only my tears would be enough

In your eyes, i see the window to your hurt
I see everything that you have a hold of
ever afraid to let it go
for fear of losing others to your anguish

You rant and are full of distermperment
A rageing bull, but; yet keep tame
Hesitant to unleash this other side of you

I worry about you when i see your sorrowful eyes
Full of tears that you refuse to let fall,
thinking that it will keep you balanced
believing no-one shall notice their gathering

Time has never stopped to let you get back on your feet
Moving swiftly, forever continuing
Sweeping you along with the tide
It doesn't wait for you to choose
nor slow down for you to pick up the pace

If only the tears that i let fall for you
would take the tears from the hold of your eyes
Let them disolve into my cheeks and disappear from yours
when im hurting, for you

I'm forever trying to open your eyes to the world
and close them to the past, to the hellish things you have seen To the wicked things you have experienced

If only you would choose to listen and not just hear my words
the opening of your ears to these words
The opening of your eyes to let those tears fall...
