Black Eye Songtext
von Derek Webb

Black eyes
I′m staring through a keyhole at my lover
I swear it's not from this fist
When Stockholm Syndrome
Comes to where they′re keeping you
You never know what time it is

Black eyes
All it's gonna take for me to love you
It's written in my constitution
If you go, you know I′m coming with you
I′m blind bound by love


Time is no friend
To the ones who wait
For daylight to come
Time looks the same
At the ones who hate
And the ones that do nothing

Black eyes
What I'm gonna pay for your protection
To cover the tracks that you′re leaving
I misplace my face so we can be together
And red lips change how you're perceiving

Time is no friend
To the ones who wait
For daylight to come
Time looks the same
At the ones who hate
And the ones that do nothing

Black eyes
Black eyes
