Poison Eyes

You stood there in the doorway

Watching like a hawk

I should have seen the warning

In the way you start to talk

You tell me that I’m crazy

While you’re hiding all the truth

Every word is heavy

With a version of the truth

Poison eyes Looking right through me Poison eyes Showing what you want

to see I’m paralyzed By the way you look at me Poison

eyes Poison eyes

I’m walking on the ceiling

Trying not to make a sound

You get a twisted feeling

Keeping me upon the ground

The sweetness of the water

Hides a bitter aftertaste

Every single promise

Is a systematic waste

Poison eyes Looking right through me Poison eyes Showing what you want

to see I’m paralyzed By the way you look at me Poison

eyes Poison eyes

Don’t blink or you might miss it

The way the light begins to bend

You’re waiting for the finish

Just to start it up again

Poison eyes Looking right through me Poison eyes Showing what you want

to see I’m paralyzed By the way you look at me Poison

eyes Poison eyes

(poison eyes... looking right through me...)
