She Has Eyes Made For Crying
I am sick of her attacks
Can't help but I've fallen back
Into the same old trap
She has eyes made for crying
I believed in what she's said
I've rented space in her head
A place I should have fled
She has eyes made for crying
When she can't lie to get approved
She loses time and far removed
Then expects me to be moved
She has eyes made for crying
I can't afford to keep it used
I'm getting ready, again, to lose
Next she wells up and argues
She has eyes made for crying
When she hits those hits are hard
Weeping is her first playing card
She'll say she's the one who's been scarred
She has eyes made for crying
It is true I believe that she believes
In the stories she continually weaves
This is the last one she conceives
She has eyes made for crying
Now is the best time for us to part
She has been tearing at my heart
No longer will I tear my world apart
She has eyes made for crying
