Look at him, what do you see?

Just another face in the crowd?

Look closer, into his eyes

Now do you see what I see?

Because I see dead eyes

There is no hope, no laughter

Even fear is absent

There is no light shining

The life has simply left

His spirit has been broken

And all that can be seen

Is his ever weary soul

What could have happened?

What could steal away the strive to live?

I didn't understand what I now know well

I used to be free as a soaring eagle

Like a river I followed the boundaries

Yet I was still wild

Now I feel chained

I am a prisoner in my own mind

The one I love will never feel the same

And so I add on the chains

I will forever be an outsider

And so the locks click into place

My own darkness overwhelms me

And so I throw away the keys

Can you find them?

If you did, would you set me free?

Because if you were to look into my eyes

You would find little hope

You would have to search hard for laughter

Even fear is scarce, how could things be worse?

My spirit is broken

And you can only see my weary soul

Save me before the will to live is gone

Because even as you watch

Even as you stare the light is fading

And soon I will have only dead eyes
