Labrats - In our eyes

Lyrics Inspired by Victor Coy
[Verse]
Wait—don’t go, just stay.
We longed for summer, but winter came.
We stepped inside—still met with snow,
Chasing light we’d never know.
Each day, we dreamed of what could be,
Then watched it drift like smoke to sea.

[Chorus]
In our eyes—cries to "Go!"
In our eyes—shouts of "No!"
In our eyes—dawn’s first light,
And fire’s last glow, fading to night.
In our eyes—stars burning high,
In our eyes—paradise gone.
In our eyes—doors locked tight.
What do you seek? Choose to go on!

[Verse]
We begged for water—none was near.
We reached for light—no stars appear.
We drank from puddles, cold and gray.
We sang in silence, lost our way.
We longed for sleep—no dreams would stay.
We mourned in black as trumpets played.

[Chorus]
In our eyes—cries to "Go!"
In our eyes—shouts of "No!"
In our eyes—dawn’s first light,
And fire’s last glow, fading to night.
In our eyes—stars burning high,
In our eyes—paradise gone.
In our eyes—doors locked tight.
What do you seek? Choose to go on!

[Verse]
We climbed through glass beneath the sea,
Wrote songs in smoke no soul could see.
We danced with ghosts beneath the trees,
And bargained with forgotten keys.
We slept on thrones of bone and dust,
Still whispering, “In hope, we trust.”

[Chorus]
In our eyes—cries to "Go!"
In our eyes—shouts of "No!"
In our eyes—dawn’s first light,
And fire’s last glow, fading to night.
In our eyes—stars burning high,
In our eyes—paradise gone.
In our eyes—doors locked tight.
What do you seek? Choose to go on!
