Different Eyes Lyrics

The train comes through the land of dreams and cuts the silence of its route

The sparrow flies

Nobody knows it's his last night so it doesn't try to be alive

Through different eyes

A widow smiles and says you've hardly touched your plate, it's been a while

But her heart is lost

She's dying now of too much to give

Though they can't see she wants to live

Through different eyes

How could it be

Their arms turned to wings as they were set free

How could they fly

One is so low

And one is just right

While one is too high

A rubber ball

Black specks wore through its paint against the northern shore

Battered by the waves

The painted rings seem to smile and wave as it drifts away

Or does it come nearer and bigger and alive

But through different eyes

How could it be

When the end is near there's nothing to do but watch everything disappear

When life snakes and twists

Making the time here worth places and people were loved

And everything will cease to exist

Through different eyes
