Golden eyes
Beautiful eyes
See’s the world
For what it is
But doesn’t realize
Their own demise
Or the error in their ways
Beautiful eyes
Changed the world
But the world can’t change
The color in them
What golden eyes
Living happy lies
They never happen to see

There is always those people in life that see's the fault in everything. They are always talking about something or another but never realize that they may do the very thing they always complain about. Or worse.
