These Eyes Lyrics - Biohazard

So many things these eyes have seen 

People I've met and places I've been 

Inconceivable how one maintains 

In the game with the pain and the strain on the brain 

How reality's plane can wear you down 

And make you an insane man who only frowns 

City hardened and cold just like me 

Anger has numbed my eyes from all they see, from all they see 

Like a workingman's skin as it turns to leather 

The mind of the youth is forced to weather 

An assault on his senses by his parents and peers 

That preys on innocence, weakness and fears 

Manifestation of rage runs deep 

Over the edge of sanity, thoughts creep 

Violent reaction, bitter and mean 

A product of what these eyes have seen 

These eyes have seen inhuman sights 

I hold my breath with all my might 

Like anyone else in our own hells 

It seems obscene, the things I've seen 

I hold my breath with all my might 

These eyes have seen inhuman sights 

Lost count of how many wakes were attended 

Mind and body never quite mended 

Do you think this is what life intended? 

At fourteen your life has ended 

Maybe your spirit is battered and broken 

From shit you've seen and words that were spoken 

Death, violence, drugs all around 

These eyes have seen some shit go down
