In Your Eyes

I know
You have
An idea of the way things should be
I know
You don't
Know anybody else who's like me

The clothes
I wear
You say that you don't recognise me
If I grow
My hair
Maybe you will see what I see

But in your eyes
I'm your boy, you chose my name
In your eyes
You just can't get used to change
I won't sit down quietly
'cause I'm not who you want me to be

Biting
My tongue
So much that all I can taste is blood
It fills
My lungs
Why can't I just cough it up

Into your eyes
I'm your boy, you chose my name
In your eyes
You just can't get used to change
I won't sit down quietly
'cause I'm not who you want me to be

You don't see the way things are
The steps we took to come this far
The ones we lost along the way
But the rest of us are here to stay

But in my eyes
I'm not that boy, I choose my name
In my eyes
I'm not him, we're not the same
I won't sit down quietly
'cause I'm not who you want me to be
I said, I won't sit down quietly
'cause I'm not who you want me to be
