Analysis of The Eyes Say it All
Sarah Rayan 1982 (Kuwait City)
You let me see the other side, with no place to run and no place to hide
The eyes say it all, and it's all your fault
I beg and you crawl, til you realize
You made my life a tragedy, and tell me that I should set myself free
The eyes say it all, and it's all your fault
Why my tear drops fall, as sea levels rise
