New Eyes |
| In the quiet of my room |
| I gather up my thoughts and questions |
| Could I ever be like you? |
| Could I ever be a person, so real and so true? |
| It seems implausible |
| I look at my reflection |
| If only I could say |
| The things I never mention |
| The things you never knew |
| And I’d like to thank you for the human I’ve become |
| I’m sorry if I’ve let you down |
| I’m trying, I’m learning as I stumble along |
| To see this new world without your eyes |
| Once upon a time there was a girl who so much loved the world |
| She have her only begotten sunshine |
| And dried her stained eyes on a neck tie |
| Took the best lies made 'em truths |
| And spit sad soliloquies in the booth |
| Cause people think they know but they barely knew |
| The reality of what the other-siders do |
| But I’ve been there, I’ve learnt that |
| Seen a whole bunch of world and done came back |
| Got a reckoning for wrecking in my knapsack |
| 'Bout to journey on foot through the outback |
| GRRRL PRTY is the label on my snapback |
| Doin' worldwide shows in a black hat |
| 'Bout to tell your ass a story so take that |
| Free prophecies from a black cat |
| Seen his demise with a pair of brand new eyes |
| It was sickening, guy |
| Never wanted to be stickin' it to thickening thighs |
| But now he deeper than the secrets that he keep with a lie |
| «Mm, tastes good!» |
| baby say with a cry |
| Now wait… |
| Thinkin' about it too much, too much |
| Deepen the profit sooner, sooner |
| He never wanted to be a loser |
| But the bruises of losing is oozing through his fingers |
| The tips that like to brush at my hips |
| Is now at the hilt of a sword, Lord |
| On the battlefield, torn, sworn |
| To never think about another lover |
| Hopin' he had time to recover but nothing’s ever easy |
| Beware the sting of queen bee (grr!) |
| And I’d like to thank you for the human I’ve become |
| I’m sorry if I’ve let you down |
| I’m trying, I’m learning as I stumble along |
| To see this new world without your eyes |
| So many things in he I would like to be |
| Wiser, more light on my feet |
| I could look up in the mirror and change me |
| Or right over my shoulder and save me |
| Thinkin' about back, back when, when I ain’t have nothing |
| Not a thing or a ring to my name |
| Now my feet in the game, knee deep, don’t speak |
| Feelin' like Gwen Stefani in this thing |
| But I can’t complain cause we asked for this |
| Feelin' like a workaholic or a masochist |
| Don’t call like I should like its sacrilege |
| To make a dollar in a dream into packed venues |
| Take a second, put your shield down |
| Laying down my sword, getting off the battlefield now |
| Makin' bigger moves, bigger pictures in my view now |
| Get up out of my way I’ve got ammo for days, pow! |
| I can feel the weight of wars you’ve lost |
| They’re victories in my eyes |
| Every swing you take brings me closer and closer |
| Open the gates and I’m poised to charge |
| You told me we’d never get this far |
| Now we at the final round |
| There’s no way we’ll escape battle scars |
| Battle scars |
| And I’d like to thank you for the human I’ve become |
| I’m sorry if I’ve let you down |
| I’m trying, I’m learning as I stumble along |
| To see this new world without your eyes |
