about

This was the first track that I wrote for the album, I guess it was always destined to to open the record.

lyrics

Darkest Eye

Your open mouth
Nothing came out
Just sign what you see
And I'll try to believe
You never meant to say those things
all the pain that those words bring
I'll stay strong
I cannot listen for long
The more you talk the more I feel
And now it's time I can reveal

What went wrong
we've had all our fun
And you took more than you could borrow
With your darkest eye
To be alone
When all the love has flown
With what you had there should be plenty
With your darkest eye

You couldn't see
How it could be
Head in the clouds
Living a dream
felt awkward trying to point it out
It only made you scream and shout
I tried to belong
But they moved you along
Aspiration killed you first
Then you only made it worse

And who knows
Why you suffered in silence
And why chain
Whats never even there
Don't feel so judged and you will see again
See it bright and start to care
I cannot take you there
