Black Eye Lyrics

Jane can't keep herself home tonight
Keep herself believing she'll be alright
Keep herself awake to a body
That's close to the hands
And the feet that nobody else knowsAll the way from London
She looks away laughing at herself
And her black eye shade
Boy can't keep his pain under the glass
Laughing at the world as it just slides pastI know this black eye waste
These days waste this light
I know this black eye waste
These days waste this sunlightMaybe permission ain't good enough
Maybe you need someone
Who can stand your love
Maybe somebody who's cool to the touchSo much I know
This black eye waste
These days waste this spotlightLet me crucify you
Let me sacrifice our love

Let me resurrect you
Be my resurrection nowLet me celebrate you
Let me hold your head up high
Let me hang you from the sky
