    Broke My Eyes

    by: Donkeyboy

    I broke my eyes
    when I saw what I shouldn't have seen
    Slightly mad
    Like everyone else
    Life is short
    Oh why is life so short
    We can't hide no more
    We can run away
    Disguise ourselves
    Reborn
    Consequences
    You should be more aware
    Consequences
    Have taken me down
    We can't hide no more
    We can run away
    Disguise ourselves
    Reborn
    Consequences
    We can't hide no more
    We can run away
    Disguise ourselves
    Reborn
