​lonely eyes

Lonely eyes, I saw you wasting half your life
I wanna be a better man
But I don't know if I can
Don't deny it, better years have passed you by
It's hard to look into the strange
But God, how things may change

Well, I hope you can do what I tell you
With your shadow, don't be shallow
Don't feel so blue, I could change you
Who knows where you'll be if I'm there

How long can things go wrong
It's hard sometimes to move along
Results sound sweet in your arms
They tell me on to get me wrong
It's hard to fight the feeling because

Lately my mind's been so lazy
Caught up in a daydream
Waking up to find I rely on
Safety to cover up the crazy
Lay me down and maybe
I can catch my breath, get this all off my chest

How long did things go so wrong
It's hard sometimes to move along
Results sound sweet in your arms
They tell me on to get me wrong
It's hard to fight the feeling, ah, ah

[instrumental]

I don't wanna waste your time
And make you feel like things are fine
'Cause I don't have a single clue
No telling what comes next for you
But I don't wanna change your mind
Your kindness keeps my head in line
But I can feel the tension too
It's strange how change feels less like you

No, I don't wanna waste your time
And make you feel like things are fine
But I don't have a single clue
No telling what comes next for you
But I don't wanna change your mind
Your kindness keeps my head in line
But I can feel the tension too
It's strange how change feels less like you

No, I don't wanna waste your time
And make you feel like things are fine
But I don't have a single clue
No telling what comes next for you
But I don't wanna change your mind
Your kindness keeps my head in line
But I can feel the tension too
It's strange how change feels less like you, ah!

[instrumental]

I don't wanna waste your time
And make you feel like things are fine
'Cause I don't have a single clue
No telling what comes next for you
But I don't wanna change your mind
Your kindness keeps my head in line
But I can feel the tension too
It's strange how change feels less like you

Woah, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

(We all have thanks but it's hard to face it
Scratch the past but you can't erase it
Tryna drown my doubt in your parents' basement
Gotta feel alive, I can almost taste it
We all got thoughts but it's hard to face it
Wanna scratch the past but you can't erase it
Tryna drown my doubt in your parents' basement
Gotta feel alive, I can almost taste it
Open your eyes, I saw your face... [inaudible])
