Iris DeMent - All eyes on me

Daylight burns your sleepy eyes It's hard to see you dreaming You hide inside yourself I wondered what you're thinkin'And everything you're chasing It seems to leave you empty And it won't take long to burn All eyes on me Through the nothing that you've learned All eyes on me And the things you choose to be All eyes on me But your eyes look away It's so hard to be someone Strung out from today And all that you knew slips away You drown in deeper oceans Inventing new religions They smile and stab my back and I lie and have to laugh And it won't take long to burn All eyes on me Through the nothing that you've learned All eyes on me And the things you choose to be All eyes on me But your eyes look away It's so hard to be someone Strung out from today And all that you knew slips away And you hid in your room And the light burns away And you move from the truth It's all so far from you
