“BIG EYES” by Drew Mazur

Why do I value my failures

More than my successes?

I see you at the bar stool

In a ball cap, in your messes

 And you don’t have to dress

However they tell you to

The atmosphere

When you’re in here

Let a drunken phrase

Slip into my ear

Honey, let’s shake off

The pretense of this hideaway

I will think of these

A thousand faces

Faces away

These big eyes

*

We can talk in platonic warmth

While we feel this out

But when your head’s over my shoulder

Making me sweat like fire’s hunger

Feeling this out

Brace yourself for a waterfall

Honey, let’s shake off

The pretense of this hideaway

I will think of these

A thousand faces

Faces away

These big eyes

 *

When you’re feeling salty

Don’t let them tread you down

‘Cause even though it’s off the cuff

I’ll be frequently about

These big eyes

Brace yourself for a waterfall

Why do I value my failures

More than my successes?
