Eagle's Eye

Eagle's Eye

So sleek and so strong, with an all watching eye
He sits atop and watches his prey, from high, high in the sky
With eyes of glass and piercing sight
He watches the ground below, no sense of smell nor aid of light
He studies the moves, tracking his foes
Standing his ground, reading his moves
Killing machine, he does it for life
A malevolent creation in his own right

Wings are spread he's built for flight
He soars down out of the sky
With blinding speed and endless flight
You won't escape the eagle's eye

He hunts without sleep, all through the night
Claiming all that's brave to challenge his might
With thrashing speed, as quiet as night
He's waiting his turn, he will eat tonight
The games of survival, the quest for life
Only the strong survive, the weak will fall tonight
Testing his boundaries, honing his skills
Killing is his business, he does it at will

Wings so strong spread so wide
He floats to the earth out of the sky
With fearful strength the Lord of the sky
He sees everything with his eagle's eye
Eagle's eye

Peaceful and clear, everything seen
Everything calm, so serene
Suddenly changed, turned so black
To make more room for you and me

Eagle's eye closed with a tear not dry
He no longer floats to the earth from the sky
He's no longer strong, no endless flight
Nothing is seen from the eagle's eye
