I've tried to nail them down
But still they move
And they won't
Show their faces
And I can't
Grab the arms
Coming from the hands
That blind my sight
To remove
The ceremonial mask
Cripple me
Never move
Haloed eyes
Move
(Perfect this time
I can't move
I want to move
Move
Please move)
Not to shake
What they say
I cannot see
But it touches me
And with baited hands
And baited lines
Churn my waters
To bring about my truth
And in the end
I can't see your eyes
And I can never justify
The way my eyes
Never moved to meet yours
I can never justify
Why I couldn't see you
Why I've never been able to see you
I've never been able to see
Why can't I see?
Why can't my eyes move?
(I just couldn't
See through my
Self)
Never move
Haloed eyes
