Lyrics
Lazy Eye
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.
The world spins 'round the secret lives
Of everyone that needs to hide
A cheap parade of endless lies
Filters through this lazy eye
And I don't believe in signs
No, I don't believe your lies
Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
Lose yourself in no one's life
Trapped in nowhere's empty light
Words like fists that tear you down
Crash before we hit the ground
And I don't believe in signs
No, I don't believe your lies
Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
And I don't believe in signs
No, I don't believe your lies
No, I don't believe your lies
Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
Breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
