Doll
Michael Shepard
Dare I look inside, shine a little light
Where the demons hide
No bones, hollow head
Forget the heart, put a voice instead
I’ll say what you say
Repeat the words, it is better that way
No soul, push me aside
I’ll be right here when your other friends die
Doll eyes don’t shine
Shine on me doll shine
Shine on me doll shine
Doll eyes don’t cry
Cry on me doll cry
Cry on me doll cry
Days crawl, shedding skin
Running out of things to dress up in
Sunlight, melted gum
Sticking around when I don’t want none
Shake out the broken glass
From other play times and other times past
No fun, big surprise
I am the doll with the big dumb eyes
Doll eyes don’t shine
Shine on me doll shine
Shine on me doll shine
Doll eyes don’t cry
Cry on me doll cry
Cry on me doll cry
