Cyclops

[Verse 1]
Flight path was perfect, sky was a sapphire blue
Then came the fire, splitting the world in two
One parachute, a promise I had to keep
Brother in my arms, a promise buried deep
We landed in flames, and my head struck the ground
A silent concussion, never making a sound
And when I woke up, the world was colored red
A constant reminder of the things that were unsaid

[Chorus]
Ruby quartz, the prisoner of my eyes
Reflecting all the sorrow and all the lies
A constant pressure, a pain contained within
A monument to all the places I have been
My father, a pirate in the stars
While I was left to carry all of his scars

[Verse 2]
The school was a cage, but you were the one true light
I saw your heart so pure, so full of endless fight
We built a life together, a home within the team
But then the fire shattered that perfect dream
You left me, I had to watch you burn
I saw your heart so pure, fade from my sight.
Then I met another woman, she had your emerald eyes
A second chance at happiness beneath the same grey skies
We had a son, a future I could hold
But a call came, a story left untold
She was back, you were back, and I had to choose
Between my future and a past I couldn't lose

[Chorus]
Ruby quartz, the prisoner of my eyes
Reflecting all the sorrow and all the lies
A constant pressure, a pain contained within
A monument to all the places I have been
The clone became a queen, lost in her own dark curse
And my little boy was cast into the universe

[Bridge]
From a man that never should have been
Came A warrior, a solider, a man raised with sin
He looked at me with anger, of a father he once had
And in his eyes, a saw a broken future
Of a little boy looking for his dad
Ruby quartz, the prisoner of my eyes
Reflecting all the sorrow and all the lies
A constant pressure, a pain contained within
A monument to all the places I have been
A life of dark reflections, the father I couldn’t be
An endless cycle always turns on me

[Outro]
Then a woman in white, made of diamonds and perfect steel
A truth that hurt more than the lies that I could feel
She saw the darkness hidden deep in me
And tried to put together a fractured team
She taught me how to lead, to be the man I wanted to be
But the fire shattered that perfect scene
And she tore my heart with a king of the sea
She said she never could fight the ghost of you
I took the love i had for her and buried it deep

[outro]
Ruby quartz, the prisoner of my eyes
Reflecting all the sorrow and all the lies
A constant pressure, a pain contained within
A monument to all the places I have been
She was back, you were back, and I had to choose
Between my present and a future I couldn’t lose
And I still see my everything every time I look at you
Ruby quartz, the prisoner of my eyes
Reflecting all the sorrow and all the damn lies
Ruby quartz (the prisoner of my eyes)
Reflecting all the sorrow (and all the damn lies)
A constant pressure (a pain contained within)
A monument to all the places I have been
