Picture Perfect (In Your Eyes) Songtext

von 10 Years

In your eyes, is the picture perfect?
In your eyes does the grass look greener?
Have you seen it through my eyes?

The world has caught on fire
From what I've been told
These city lights are killing ever slowly
The sanity within me

Maybe I'm lost in my creation
This isn't how I thought I'd turn out

In your eyes, I'm picture perfect
In your eyes the grass is greener
Have you seen it through my eyes?

The stars are burning brighter, so bright we can't ignore
We're hypnotized, by televised train wrecks
Tragedies of paychecks
Maybe I, a product of my placement
We're given no chance to make up our mind

In your eyes, I'm picture perfect
In your eyes the grass is greener
Have you seen it through my eyes?
'Cause through my eyes

In your eyes, I'm so picture perfect
In your eyes the grass is greener
Have you seen it through my eyes?

Through my eyes
Through my eyes
Through my eyes

Pay attention, please
He who lusts through life for excess of this world
Dies a lonely man, careless of his soul

Throwing caution to the wind with foolish ignorance
You're full of pride and arrogance
You can't accept the nearing end of this short lived life

Smile and give a toast, brag and boast
Fool the world with all your lies
The parasite's host never even knows
Pull the wool over our eyes

Walk the line and pay the price
A pound of flesh for paradise
Wear the wounds of your demise, demise

Fail to mention your intentions, fail to mention, why
Your actions in life contradict your words
The path in which you walk, a line of no remorse
Washing conscience from the skin
Claiming innocence, ignore the signs

From cradle to grave, you chose to trade
A pound of flesh for paradise
Wear the wounds of your demise

Pay attention, please
He who lusts through life for excess of this world
Dies a lonely man, careless of his soul

Throwing caution to the wind with foolish ignorance
You're full of pride and arrogance
You can't accept the nearing end of this short lived life

Smile and give a toast, brag and boast
Fool the world with all your lies
The parasite's host never even knows
Pull the wool over our eyes

Walk the line
From cradle to grave, you chose to trade
A pound of flesh for paradise
Wear the wounds of your demise
