LAGWAGON LYRICS

"Black Eyes"

Acoustic Version

He knows no shame and takes no blame
This simpleton sees everything
He's only satisfied to point out other's mistakes
Never afraid to use his pride

His tradition is old
His faith a hand-me-down
The family
He wears them on his sleeve
Morale and value left under a Christmas tree
He once had the gift
This image in his grandparents' eyes
No guns
No drugs
No rape
No end

This vacant soul is pale and blue
In empty gaze
His crow's feet are a vision of defeat
Sick and tired of the meaninglessness
The irrationale
He's desensitized
His every need and emotion
A cup half empty
But full of euphoria
He's searching for the light switch in the dark
To switch his routine
To find a reason
To find faith and peace of mind (mind)
When one too many beliefs died (died)
It's tough to see through these black eyes

Everyone forgives (forgives)
Everyone forgets (forgets)
Everyone is true
And no one here will lie to you (lie to you)

He knows the truth [x2]
Here nothing's certain
Disregard what you've learned
To find faith and peace of mind (mind)
When all of their gods died with his peace
I should know him, that heathen's me
