Jennie Vee: Real Eyes (Official Music Video)
Jennie Vee: Real Eyes Lyrics:
She needs a light
In the shadows she plays
Where the grass is always greener
She composes a note
And abandons all hope
In the night it’s always easier
“Well I try and I try and I try
To push it away, But mistakes that I’ve made
Have me digging a grave
And I’m sorry”
And I hope there’s something real inside
I hope there’s something real behind those eyes
White as a ghost, White as a dove
It was you and me forever
Till you drained all the blood
Like a surgeon you cut, Through the veins
And the heart of the matter
So it spills on the page
All the lists i have made
of betrayal, And I cannot replace
All the time gone to waste
I surrender…
And I hope there’s something real inside
I hope there’s something real behind those eyes
And I hope there’s something real behind the lies
i choose isolation oh oh
i will be, destroyed by nothing
i will be, defined by reflection oh oh
i will be, decay and ashes
And I hope there’s something real inside
I hope there’s something real behind those eyes
And I hope there’s something real inside
I hope there’s something real behind those eyes
And I hope there’s something real behind the lies
She needs a light, In the shadows she plays
It was you and me forever.
