Eyes
D.A.G Lyrics

Sometimes I wonder how I cope
I question my ability to handle the stress and tension in our relationship.

When every time I open my mouth
Every time I speak, we get into an argument.

You jump down my throat
You react aggressively and angrily to what I say.

And some nights the beds so cold
There are sleepless nights spent in bed, thinking about our unhealed wounds.

In frozen sheets
We feel emotionally detached and distant from each other.

It's like we're lying at opposite poles
We have conflicting opinions and attitudes towards each other.

And I just don't know
I am left confused and uncertain.

What to do
I am unsure of the next steps to take.

Loosen my grip
I can let go of our relationship and move on from you.

Or take a tighter hold on you
I can continue to cling onto our relationship and try to work things out.

Just remember
I want to remind you of something important.

That you came looking for me
You pursued me and initiated our relationship.

I didn't hunt in someone else's territory
I did not cheat on you with someone else.

You presented the opportunity
You gave us the chance to be together.

It was you who pursued me
You chased after me and showed interest in me.

Maybe you just needed the change
Perhaps you were looking for something new and different in your life.

And got a kick out of playing the game
You enjoyed the chase and the excitement of our relationship.

I know you don't like things that stay the same
You prefer change and variety in your life.

So I guess you're not to blame
I understand that you have your own reasons for how you feel.

I suppose its my fault again
I blame myself for our relationship problems.

Sometimes we don't see eye to eye
We have disagreements and different perspectives on things.

But I don't ask too many questions why
I try not to dwell on our issues and keep the peace in our relationship.

Neither of us knew what to expect
We did not anticipate the challenges and difficulties of our relationship.

What was gonna happen next
We were unsure of how things would turn out.

So we cherished every caress
We appreciated the little moments of love and affection we shared.

Sorry I wasn't there
I regret not being there for you in your times of need.

When you needed a rest
When you were tired and exhausted from our relationship.

A shoulder to cry on
Someone to lean on for emotional support.

Moral support
Encouragement and advice to help you through tough times.

Honestly
To be truthful about my feelings.

I always thought about you
You were always on my mind.

And I hated the fact
I despised how things turned out for us.

We only had
Our relationship was fleeting and temporary.

Brief moments of contact
Short periods of contact and communication between us.

We'll survive and if we persevere
We can endure and overcome our relationship troubles if we stick together.

Then maybe this will last for years
Our relationship can withstand the test of time.

I don't mean to exert pressure
I do not want to force anything on you or make things worse.

I just wanna give
I want to show love and affection towards you.

And receive pleasure
I also want to experience love and happiness.

And if you're pouring
If you are willing to give to our relationship.

I'll have full measure
I will give back to you in equal measure.

'cause it's you I'll treasure
I value and cherish you in my life.

Even if we're not together
Our relationship may not last, but my feelings for you will remain.

Time won't change a single thing
We cannot change the past or the present.

We're still playing all these selfish games
We continue to bicker and fight over petty things.

I'd hate to hate you
I do not want to have negative feelings towards you, despite our issues.

Why do all the questions stay the same
We keep repeating the same arguments and conversations.

Why do all you're answers cause me pain
Your responses to me hurt me and make the situation worse.

Do I need to say it all again
Should I repeat myself and try to explain my feelings once more.

Look
Listen to me for a moment.

I know we're not exactly Romeo and Juliet
Our relationship may not be perfect, but it is still valuable to me.

But come on
Let's make an effort to work things out.

I ain't nowhere near ready to quit on this yet
I am not willing to give up on our relationship just yet.
