No More Little White Eyes



A glance in the mirror-
truth has drained the blue
leaving little white eyes.
I know I've done wrong.
The reflection in the mirror
Holds the reflection of my soul.
Little white lies
erode your trust in me
leaving hope gasping
on the floor.
God, fill me with living water.
I'm done with all of these
Little white lies.
A glance in the mirror-
I've told the truth.
Blue floods my reflected soul.
No more little white eyes.
