Western Eyes |
| Forgotten throes of anothers life |
| The heart of love is their only light |
| Faithless greeds, consolidating |
| Holding down sweet charity |
| With western eyes and serpents breath |
| We lay our own conscience to rest |
| But I’m aching at the view |
| Yes I’m breaking at the scenes just like you |
| They have values of a certain taste |
| The innocent they can hardly wait |
| To crucify, invalidating |
| Turning to dishonesty |
| With western eyes and serpents breath |
| They lay their own conscience to rest |
| But then they lie and then they dare to be Hidden heros candidly |
| So I’m aching at the view |
| Yes I’m breaking at the scenes just like you |
| (I feel so cold on hookers and gin… this mess we’re in!) |
