Lyrics
Dead 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.
A place you’ve never been to
People you don’t know
It’s not your hole to be in
Easy to let it go
But deep down at the bottom
In the back of your mind
The saddest empty feeling
Finds you every night
That everyone you love is already gone
I dreamt that I was drowning in the middle of the sea
But things like that don’t happen to people like me
And that’s just what you tell yourself
The dead I leave in the background
The dead I leave in the day
The dead I leave in the background
The dead I leave in the day
The dead I leave in the background
The dead I leave in the day
The dead I leave in the background
The dead I leave in the day
You can’t escape the feeling
It’s in everything you do
Consider yourself lucky that you have this much to lose
And try not to waste your life
Thinking about the end
The message and the meaning
Well you knew it all along
The thing about forever it goes on and on and on
Sometimes I wish I could give it all back
The dead I leave in the background
The dead I leave in the day
The dead I leave in the background
The dead I leave in the day
The dead I leave in the background
The dead I leave in the day
The dead I leave in the background
The dead I leave in the day
Where you been hiding all your demons
How can you look me in the eye
If you can't tell me when
Can you tell me why?
The dead I leave
The dead I leave
The dead eye leave
The dead I leave in the day
The dead I leave
The dead I leave
The dead I leave
The dead I leave in the day
