Eyes

Eyes

A Poem by Soda Songs

Why do we panic when the eyes meet?
Heart beats - cold feet
Look away cuz I can't speak
It's just the way that our souls meet and intertwine
Almost like reading your mind
Holding this gaze could make me blind
 
And when they click (click click) that's when the room spins
Chemistry is within reach if we can find it
Pick up the nerve - cuz we deserve to undermine it
 
Chorus:
Eyes - stuck on
Eyes - looking inside
What can you hide now?
Nothing - cuz we're choking on our pride
Just stay still
Don't move
You're looking at what you've got to lose
Just show me what I have to prove
and I'll give it to you
Yeah, I'll give it to you
 
Don't blink
Don't think
Only man in a while with potential to make my heart sink
Looks like it's serious
But I'm just a little curious
Sweat's dripping fast
And I smell the fear in you
 
All rules broken - nothing left - when I decide to choke
You looked in too deep, and scared me
and that's when the gaze broke
Left you standing with a lump in your throat
 
Chorus:
Eyes - stuck on
Eyes - looking inside
What can you hide?
Now - nothing - cuz we're choking on our pride
Just stay still
Don't move
You're looking at what you've got to lose
Just show me what I have to prove
and I'll give it to you
Yeah, I'll give it to you
 
How could it be so hard to hold a  gaze?
Long as the gut stays
We won't be parting ways
 
It's up to the moment
left you hanging on the line
you've got nothing left now
The pride is all mine
 
Eyes - stuck on
Eyes - looking inside
What can you hide?
Now - nothing - cuz we're choking on our pride
Just stay still
Don't move
You're looking at what you've got to lose
Just show me what I have to prove
and I'll give it to you
Yeah yeah, I'll give it to youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Very deep song, I like it. Is it meant to be slow or upbeat? It could go either way, or even go with a beatbox...I like it a a lot, your rhymes are great, your stanzas are perfect and, most importantly, your lyrics are beautiful, meaningful and so real..Awesome! =) Thanks for sharing it.
