His eye found Me on the second take with his emerald gaze It's a backbone conspiracy And I'm beginning to think I've been played That proud sound had left me limiting less Avoiding every last one Do you see how bright I burn? Now you got a good look, so I'm blinding you out Says, "don't run away You play the game the way you've always known Disintegrate your hesitation and listen to me!" I'd come crawling Through the dirt if I believed There was an ounce of me I could swear had been here before (Wait! Wait! He's still not done!) A bit short of a warrior, but I'm out front Taking on all the bigger acts while a sinister voice from inside Decides how many times I've been abandoned Is that enough to keep him satisfied? Am I the one to blame if I use his name? I'd come crawling Through the dirt if I believed There was an ounce of me I could swear had been here before, no And if the sun won't set In spite of everything Then I will bring the Eventide Speak no evil of stone cold anthems Taken halfway and weighed all anchors Daylight drained, and swallowed pride Caught in lonely Eventide!
