These Eyes / Have seen the darkest of times /
But they can't look away
From these eyes / starin' back at me /
They got something to say /
These eyes / Tell the story/
Of what no one here is willing to say

2nd vs
These arms / have always embraced the truth
Now it all seems so real /
'Cause these arms / that reach out to me /
In desperation / for the love of a good meal /
They pull back / empty handed /
'Cause I've given my last dime today /

and it's all too much / The way things are goin today /
Throughout the land /
It's all too much / I'm tryin' / I said I'm tryin' to understand...

Instrumental break Hey ... oohh..
refrain
These eyes/ tell the story/
Of what no one here is willing to say/

3rd vs
This heart/ Is getting torn apart /
It's getting harder to feel /
These hearts/ That belong to everyone/
Slowly turning to steel /
Where everyday / Everyday/
Just to stay alive is such an ordeal/
And it's all/ all around us / We just can't deny/
Like we did yesterday/
It's all around us/
It's we who decide /
What we choose to see or ignore/

Vocal break
It's just a sign of the times/
And I'm just one step behind them/
Everywhere I go / I seem to see it more and more
There's people fallin/ Through the cracks of life/
It's getting harder to find / A Little hope in these eyes
In these eyes

Tag

That's why we've got to try a little harder /
Shine a little brighter / Share a deeper love/
A little love and understanding/ with our fellow man
With these eyes
