"Father's Eyes"



A guard at her heart
And a fear in her smile
Vanity...
Insecurity...
Tears to reconcile.


Lockets don’t mean anything
When you’re living a lie.


All the pretty girls hide behind their father’s eyes



Wrapped in pink only for a moment to hold
To feel her breathe close beside you
Did you ever try to?...
And there she goes to the streets to find her own
Escape the unknown that she knew so well
But daddy’s a spell...


A gate at her soul
And coins on her mind
Nicotine...
Superficial dreams...
And love she never finds.


Lockets don’t mean anything
When you’re living a lie.


All the pretty girls hide behind their father’s eyes




Wrapped in pink only for a moment to hold







To feel her breathe close beside you
Did you ever try to?......
And there she goes to the streets to find her own
Escape the unknown that she knew so well
But daddy’s a spell...

A past made of glass
And rocks in my hands
Waterproof mascara...
Blush, Base, Shadow, Lipstick, Tan

I was
Wrapped in pink only for a moment to hold
To feel me breath close beside you
Did you ever try to?...
And here I go to the streets to find my joy...
Because you found my pain
Daddy, you tried
Didn't you try?...



But
Lockets don’t mean anything
When you’re living a lie.


All the pretty girls...hide behind their father’s eyes.

Ms.Olive Green




Hey there green one
You know who are
Hiding away in the dark from him
Hey you obsessive green one
The light from this club is no protection from where you’ve been
Hey there green one how about a lime for your liquor
It helps with the burn they say
To my green one:
Keep hiding away
Until you gamble that green love away

Cuz He doesn’t want you
Already know who you are and you can bet that he knows too
Don’t listen to white lies green one
He’s onto you
On...on to you, to you

Olive green
Olive green
Olive green
I know you
In your emerald dress
With those paper seams
Tearing away at your truth


He doesn’t want you
Already know who you are and you can bet that he knows too
Don’t listen to white lies green one
Because he’s onto you
On...on to you, to you

Hey there green one
Eating that caviar
and the mint in your mouth almost threw
Hey you money colored green one
Piping on your cigar, soaking the smoke in your flames as it fumes

Olive green
Olive green
Olive green
I know you
In your emerald dress
With those paper seams
Tearing away at your truth


He doesn’t want you
Already know who you are and you can bet that he knows too
Don’t listen to white lies green one
Because he’s onto you
On on to you, to you

Olive green
Olive green
Drink that martini for two, because
Ms. Olive green
Ms. Olive green
He’s never returning to you
To you
To you
To you...
