Verse 1
I look out
It looks back
I look in
It looks through
Verse 2
Look around
Look behind
Look outside yourself
Look inside
Chorus
See it shine
See it climb
See it radiate
see it rise
See it shine
All the time
See it illuminate
It is mine
Break
Do you see?

Blind Eye (2020 Version)
02:04
|
|||
when it happens don’t you turn a blind eye
when it comes around don’t be staring at the sky
pay attention to what’s happening right now
what you’re waiting for is standing right here
you’ve been waiting
all these years
you’ve been crying
all these tears
that’s all over now
she’s been hiding
in plain site
she’s been waiting
in the light

when was the last time
I came out in front
guilty of some crime
I just don’t know what
I’m almost there now
almost just right
just one thing eludes me
one last thing to fight
It should have been mine
some sort of deception
some stone unturned
a misplaced confession
that left me burned
but its getting closer
this thing that I need
just beyond my reach now
I beg and I plead
when was the last time
I came out in front
guilty of some crime
I just don’t know what

It’s raining again
Storm coming through
Batten down
What else can you do
Arthur arrives
The waves are high
Fourth of July
Try to stay dry
Hurricane time
You can’t run away
Try to hide
Stay inside
Wind and rain given a name
Sea and sky prepare to fly
Killer waves get carried away
Peaceful eye hole in the sky

Killer (2020 Version)
03:42
|
|||
you never know who
you never know why
it’s lurking all everywhere
its hidden in their stare
its hard to understand
what makes them like this
you just can’t comprehend
so easy to dismiss
It’s a killer
No remorse
it festers in side
it never goes away
its so hard to hide
can’t get through the day
its hard to understand
what makes us like this
I just can’t comprehend
can no longer dismiss
|

So frustrated
So fed up
so aggravated
I just want to scream
It never ends
It never tires
It never stops
It never expires
It never quits
It never retires
In never ceases
It opens fire
It is relentless
It is a power
It is eternal
It never cowers
It is a force
it can’t be countered
It is a hell
It pulls you downward
|

7. |
||||
You feel the change is coming
you know the end is near
the situation is numbing
and the next move is so clear
what’s with this lack of respect
where do they get off with that
its what you’ve come to expect
acting just like a brat
I get it
I do
they can’t keep up with you
he’s threatened
you know
he knows you’ll steal the show
it makes sense
you see
that fear would be the key
so stand up
be strong
don’t have to play along

Verse 1
Taking a ride out on stressful highway #1
gotta keep that wheel steady until the morning comes
Verse 2
Stay in my lane and hope that everyone else does too
See them drift and sway tell me what am I gonna do
Chorus
can’t see anything to my front or to my back
They all push it way too fast and I just know we’re gonna crash
