Eyes That Lied

**Title: “Eyes That Lied”**

**Verse 1**
We were just kids in a crowded hall,
Lockers slammin’, echoes on the wall,
Didn’t say a word but I felt it loud,
Every glance cut through the crowd.

You looked at me like you already knew,
Like there was something pulling you,
And I tried to play it cool, pretend,
But my heart was yours before we were friends.

**Pre-Chorus**
You talked to me first, I didn’t expect that,
Every little moment, I kept track,
Thought maybe this was something real,
Something I was allowed to feel.

**Chorus**
But your eyes, they told me lies,
Gave me hope I couldn’t fight,
You saw me standing in your light,
Then left me in the night.
You knew I fell, you knew it all,
Still let me drift just to watch me fall,
Your eyes, they held me tight—
But your heart was never mine.

**Verse 2**
I remember walking past that day,
You were laughing, looking the other way,
But then your eyes, they followed me,
Like I was all you wanted to see.

Your friends were there, but time stood still,
I felt that spark, I feel it still,
And maybe I was just a game,
Just a moment, just a name.

**Pre-Chorus**
You said just enough to pull me in,
Never love, but close to it,
And I built dreams you didn’t mean,
From every word in between.

**Chorus**
‘Cause your eyes, they told me lies,
Gave me hope I couldn’t fight,
You saw me standing in your light,
Then left me in the night.
You knew I fell, you knew it all,
Still let me drift just to watch me fall,
Your eyes, they held me tight—
But your heart was never mine.

**Bridge**
And she’s the one you chose instead,
While I replay the things you said,
Was I just someone passing through,
Or did you feel it too?

I hate that I still wonder why,
Why you’d look at me that way,
If everything behind your eyes
Was never meant to stay.

**Final Chorus**
Your eyes, they told me lies,
Turned my hope into goodbye,
I was reaching for the sky,
While you were passing by.
You knew my heart, you knew my name,
Still walked away like it’s a game,
Your eyes, they felt so right—
But your love was never mine.

**Outro**
Now I walk those halls alone,
But I’m stronger than you know,
‘Cause I won’t fall for eyes again
That don’t match the soul.
