Lyrics Behind Your Eyes - Sweet Oblivion, Geoff Tate

Behind Your Eyes

First you’re hot then you’re cold
Never know which way to go
Is there something here
You want to tell me?
If that’s the case, you’re secret’s safe
I’ll give you time, give you space
I’ll be here when you’re ready
Now I don’t need some kind of explanation
But there’s gotta be an answer
I’ve seen the dark shadows behind your eyes
I know there’s more, more that you try to hide
Something’s got a hold on you
Oh, something’s got a hold on you
What it is doesn’t hesitate
It cuts you deep then escapes
It leaves you breathless, breathless
You crave that feeling more and more
It rips your head right off
Until it comes again, you’re killing time
You say don’t believe in exorcism
But we’ve got to try something
I’ve seen the dark shadows behind your eyes
I know there’s more, more that you try to hide
There’s something, there’s something wrong
There’s something more
There’s something wrong with you
I’ve seen the dark shadows behind your eyes
I know there’s more, more that you try to hide
Something’s got a hold on you
I’ve seen the dark shadows behind your eyes
You’ve got to be kidding me
The suspense is killing me
There’s something inside of you that’s evil, it’s lethal
Don’t be afraid of death, just take it by step by step
And out the other side
Flyin', survivin', high fivin'
