letra de adoring eyes - lin martin

why do i feel so far away?
i wonder with a laugh
the small obsession, every day
is today the day i ask?
i’ll ask to be a part of them
and my heart is beating fast
i wanna leave with them today and
to feel the sun at last

the shadows on the stone face here
are all i’ve ever known
a dark and damp existence
but the dark and damp is home
i see them cross and every time
i ache for them to stay
i know they have no reason to
but still i plead and pray
i’ll write another song, i guess
of lovеrs come and gone
a fiction, yeah, and a good onе too
but hey, it’s just a song
i never meant to lie to you
but lie is what i’ve done
another way to pass the time
with m-s-ch-stic fun

but no, no-one’s ever cried for me
and evil though it art
i wish someday to earnest say
i’ve broken someone’s heart
it just means that i meant enough
to make a caster pause
to make the shadow hesitate
and then to carry on

but no, no, this is my universe
and i can’t say that i’m mad
it’s full of dark and storied walls
the cave is not so bad
and i can see the stone face through
it all comes clear at night
i see my bright own galaxy
a thousand little lights
but greatly do i want for more
‘cause i want the light to stay
and for a thousand starry nights
i’d trade a single day
i wanna feel the wind with them
and if the story’s true
i’d look and see the outside sky
the phosphorescent blue

and their yellow grass would soften me
and the sunset could be seen
and the horizontal golden light
would turn the shadows green
i wonder, if i lived out there
would color color me?
to leave behind my dark and gray
and color could i see?

and what of them, the casters
pushing shadows on my wall?
could i catch up and speak with them
if they do speak at all?
“don’t look at them, they aren’t real”
i told myself to do
but that’s not what i really feel
my stomach knows what’s true
‘cause it turns and aches
and nervous makes
when shadows come and dance
it’s an urgency
to leave with them
before i miss my chance

how beautiful and intimate
those creatures there must be
their shapes and curves and lines and hair
intoxicating me
how sweet to hold one close to me
to feel her steady breath
i’d hold her close and keep her safe
and make her want for less

their time that k!lls them slowly
doesn’t bother them at all
and it seems the knowledge of the trigger
makes the hammer fall
i’d love to watch my hair turn white
as old with them i’d grow
but the pain of passing time
must be a pain i’ll never know

so this is my surrender
to the cave and all its lies
to let the shadows torment me
and to let them pass me by
to let them pass me by

i love them with my everything
and so apologize
that i cannot love with warm embrace
but with adoring eyes
