author's note

this was written after
my first viewing of the movie
" A Beautiful Mind "
one of my personal movie favorites

 


Many Eyes

I look in the mirror
and i see many eyes
but only one heart

I get scared sometimes
ahh that''s cuz
you scaredy cat

You gotta be strong
like me ain't nuthin
wrong with us

I dont know, maybe
she's right, but i don't
know much

Yea you don't know
much that's cuz you stupid
jus stupid little girl

Am not, am too, huh uh
why do you two
always fight...

Cuz she's stupid,
she don't know,
ain't nuthin wrong with us

Perhaps, but i still
get scared when i look
in the miror at many eyes

Peek a boo i see you
and you and you
hehehe i see lots of you

Hush up baby cant' you
see we're talkin here
go lay down and be quiet


Please don't yell at her
she's too young to understand
maybe we all are sometimes

You maybe not me.. gotta be
strong like me .. ain't nuthin
wrong with us ... trust me

But if i trust you then
logic says i have to trust
us all

I'm not sure we're all ready
to take that step yet
scuz me.. can i come in

What is it little one
what do you want to say
i uhh i mmm i too shy to say

Yea maybe you should hush
too cuz you just like baby,
wait a minute let her speak

I just want to say i scared
too.. i see many eyes stare
at me in mirror

I know little one
i know we all scared
we don't like mirrors

We look in the mirror
and we see many eyes
but only one heart

Awww why you listen to
her she's just a baby
she too little


Uh it's me again.. i don't
know what's going on
but i'm worried about baby

She too little
too innocent to understand
this many eyes...

Scuz me agin... can i
say sumpin... i impor impr
i know things too..

Hush up baby.. you don't
know nuthin cuz you too
little...

I say nuthin wrong with
us.. rest of the world that's
messed.. we're fine...

No i think something's wrong
we can smell colors,
touch sounds and feel voices

I think someone's there but
when i turn around nothing
but i hear voices

Sometimes new voices
bad voices, ones that
want to hurt us

Yea sure whatever
you just scaredy cat
you scared of your shadow

But that's my point
which shadow
we have many shadows

But just one heart
something's wrong
scuze me can i say somethin


You too shy, you need...
shhh be quiet let her
talk, what is it little one

I think its wrong too cuz i
wake up in middle of night
and hear bad voices too

You all crazy, you need
to trust me ain't nuthin wrong
i strong nuthin bothers me

No let her speak what is it
baby doll what is it you
wanna say?

I get scared too but i
listen to her that talks
to me sometimes

She say we need help
help from outside
cuz we shouldn't hear things

Specially bad things i don't
want to hurt myself
i too little

I know baby doll maybe
you're both right
all of us

We need to trust each other
and trust someone out there
cuz that's only way we gonna make it

No more shadows,
no more faces
only one heart and one eyes


Yea guess you're right
would'nt hurt i guess
but nobody's changin me

No one wants to cuz we
all need your strength
to make it through this

But you need to trust us
too, for our vulnerable side
so we can all let help in

I don't like bad voices,
i know baby doll,
they scare me...

Can we get help
please please. yes
i think maybe it's time

Time to take that step
the one outside of us
and learn to trust outside

What everybody think
are we ready for that
step outside...

Maybe....

No more shadows,
no more eyes,
only one heart

And finally

peace

scuz me again
heeheheh
