Straight In The Eyes
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.
How can I believe what you are telling me?
How can I believe what you might say?
When I know you're gonna say you're with me
And then turn the other way?
Why can't you just look me straight in the eyes?
Why can't anybody look me in the eyes?
All your lies are filling me.
Funny how it always has to be this way,
I turn for just a second and you're gone.
Is it really all that hard to tell me
Who's side are you on?
Why can't you just look me straight in the eyes?
Why can't anybody look me in the eyes?
All your lies are filling me, and they're killing me.
Pretty soon the world is gonna knock you down
And you'll be on your own.
Why can't you just look me straight in the eyes?
Why can't anybody look me in the eyes?
All your lies are filling me, and they're killing me.
