Eyes That Never See The Truth
Blinded by ignorance or something stronger
Eyes That Never See The Truth
Blindness does not always mean no sight
Sometimes eyes work perfectly well
Still people wander away from light
Choosing comfortable lies to tell
They stare directly at shattered trust
Yet paint betrayal silver and gold
Ignoring wounds collecting dust
While colder stories unfold
I watched truth bleed across the floor
Nobody moved to stop the stain
Their eyes stayed fixed upon the door
Pretending innocence eased the pain
Smiles hide daggers sharpened deep
False affection dressed in lace
Secrets buried where silence sleeps
Rotting slowly beneath each face
People hear only what they choose
Filtering honesty through fear
Destroying souls they later accuse
While refusing what is clear
Even mirrors begin deceiving
Reflecting masks instead of skin
A world forever self-believing
Where corruption grows within
My eyes grew tired years ago
Watching denial poison minds
Still painful truths continue to grow
Inside these darkened times
So many walk with vision intact
Still unable to truly see
Ignoring every honest fact
Until lies become reality
