What Do You See?

When you look into my eyes what do you see?
A man in love or a man at sea?
When you look into my eyes what do you see?
A trapped soul inside begging to be free?

Clarity of blue is clouded by loss,
Murky as the waters of Venice,
Clarity of blue is clouded by loss,
Confusion is the new Red Menace…

The battle rages in Milan,
Entrapped amidst the industrialisation,
The battle rages in Milan,
External battles bring exacerbation…

The people on the train concern individually,
Relativity in five different languages,
The people on the train concern individually,
Italian has its advantages…

Churches and architecture offer no solace,
Paintings portray a time long gone,
Churches and architecture over no solace,
Music conveys feelings living on…

Men with pigeons act remorselessly,
Preying on communication barriers,
Men with pigeons act remorselessly,
No distraction for heart broken carriers…

Escape to history’s home brings a welling,
Emotion builds and breaks,
Escape to history’s home brings a welling,
Love always gives and takes…

The city of masks cannot hide the truth,
The beating can be seen in my eyes,
The city of masks cannot hide the truth,
There is no escaping the fabricated lies…

When you look into my eyes what do you see?
A man in love or a man at sea?
When you look into my eyes what do you see?
A trapped soul inside begging to be free?
