A Man Without Eyes

Silver teardrop falling from her eye
he turns his head to watch a car go by
Silver teardrop turns to crystallize
to a diamond from her eyes
and smashes to the ground
right after turning back into a silver teardrop.

She blushes harshly knowing that he didn't see
It takes only a little time to miss the glory
and he'll always doubt her story
because she is only a little girl
well she's only a little girl, she's only sixteen.

A drop of red blood falling from her hand
dropping to the ground and then it turns to a red, red rose
He didn't see it and the blood runs down her hair
with her hand on her head and a look of dread on her face.

He asks her why she is so sad
she just shrugs and looks at the ground
where the stain is left
nothing gained, nothing found
to be permanently worn down, by wind and rain.

Blue blood running through her veins
until touching air and stains
Salty tear, oh what a price to pay
and they buried her the very next day.

Silver teardrop lying on her pillow
he had left and she had passed away
He had never seen what she had
he was blind, so he didn't stay.

She was buried in her red dress
her diamond earrings, the very best
A plain old girl, nothing more or less to save
with a diamond on her pillow and a rose colored grave.

Silver teardrop turn to diamond
roses blooming from the heart
Wishes spoken, love can be broken
Sometimes you don't even see the dream
til it's fallen apart.

Silver teardrop turn to diamond
blood that will only turn to the red, red rose
A body lying in a casket
forgotten slowly while the wind blows.

Weeping willow over a rose quartz grave
she was dying from the start
Silver teardrop turn to diamond
roses blooming from the heart.
