1955

1955 - Society's Finest

I saw your eyes and I didn't know what happened

But it stole my heart

I buried myself underneath the stars

Looking towards the open sky

For a familiar face to answer my cry

I couldn't move or breathe

So I held on to everything

And made it worse when it was over

Fifty five tears fell in silence

This happened every time I saw you

So I would walk away

Hoping you wouldn't follow me

But you did

And I screamed with confusion

And screamed with anger

Until you held my hurting heart

And the nights with violence move ever so fast

Because I see your face

When my eyes close with the deepest pain

I'll pray that you'll hold me

And I'll pray that I can feel your arms around me

And when fifty-five tears fall in silence

I'll pray that you'll be here to wipe them away
