To whom it may concern:
Today they say I'm five,
and they say that I'm alive.

To whom it may concern:
Why am I scared? It's really not right.
Why do the monsters come out at night?

To whom it may concern:
I'm all alone inside,
and no-one hears my cries.

To whom it may concern:
I have bright blue eyes,
and I love the night skies.

To whom it may concern:
Why did you say it was okay,
to take my life away?

To whom it may concern:
You really think vaccines are harmless and okay?
I'll remember that while I'm keeping the monsters at bay.

To whom it may concern:

Your eyes
they give me hope
hope that the world will love you
hope that you understand
hope that there is a brighter tomorrow
hope that you will take my hand.

Your eyes
I see that they are screaming
I know what they say is true
you dont have to explain it to me
I'll always fight for you.

Your eyes
They make me humble
to see the world like you
we are all so grown up and jaded
we dont see the beauty you do.

For that I say we are lucky
lucky to know such a love
so rest your beautiful eyes tonight
and dream of whats yet to come.

I wasnt me until you
I wasnt whole
I wasnt true.

You came in with a hurricane
I should have known it was more than rain

I wanted a baby perfect as could be
a baby would love and resemble me

I had no idea the kind of mom you would need
I cant do it... I thought
Im too selfish for this seed

I was only seeing the world through my eyes
I didnt see it was masked with all of these lies

Lies about how you were ok
lies about boys speaking slower they would say

Then one day I realized it wasnt you who needed excuses
but me, because in my heart I felt useless
