Dead Red Eyes

Dead red eyes
Flickering half bright
Went on for right (?)
In slick silk
They were onto my
Circumstantial slide
Blow by blow
Chipped off shell and bone
Tripped and talked around it
Could not walk through the crowd of
Careful lies
Busting open wide
Sensible fact or fable
Watched us fall from your favor
Since you knew too much about it
Dressed in wax you lit the town in
Candlelight
Flickering half bright
Well I held it in my hands and now it's
Gone, gone, gone
Saw it with my own two eyes
Just pass me by

Took a walk through a town of half stoned clones
Bound and gagging. Joke by joke they spot erase you
Heard their news but it did not phase you one little bit
Not one little bit. So I meet you by the light of main street
Stranded ghosts where I've been waiting. Kill it 50 times or more
Before I'm through I'll kill it 50 times more, just to bring it back to life
And bust it open wide again. Well I held it in my hands and now it's
Gone gone gone
Blinded by the neon in your dead red eyes
