Eyes Wide Shut
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You call me crazy
As you call my name
But your temptations
Drive me insane
A golden silence
With the lights so low
An invitation that I’ll never know
Queen of the scene
But you’re so obscene
With your long black hair
And you just don’t care
The tears I cried
And the truth I denied myself
You know I fell for you
With my eyes wide shut
The tears I cried
And the truth I denied myself
I should have walked away
With my eyes wide shut
Spiral staircase
And a flowing robe
Eyes of fire
That give me hope
But through the airways
A sign so clear
There’s someone else that you hold dear
Changing your mind
In the blink of an eye
And forgettin’ your lies
It was no surprise
The tears I cried
And the truth I denied myself
You know I fell for you
With my eyes wide shut
Tears I cried
And the truth I denied myself
I should have walked away
With my eyes wide shut
Worldwide chaos girl
People love and hate
A nationwide panic, yeah
And the future quakes
The social network
Betrayed my dreams
You with another guy
My mind starts to scream
Tears I cried
And the truth I denied myself
You know I fell for you
With my eyes wide shut
You call me crazy
As you call my name
You call me crazy
The tears I cried
And the truth I denied myself
You know I fell for you
With my eyes wide shut
The tears I cried
And the truth I denied myself
I should have walked away
With my eyes wide shut
