One Eye Open Songtext

von Trentemoller

Be my picture on the wall
And be my shadow when I call
I'll parade the monsters in my heart for you
I'm gonna tear that mask off and show you
Who I really am
Who I really am
Paris at night disguised my longings before your eyes
Streets were burning and I could not tell
Did you see? Did you pray for me?
When I was gone
I sleep with one eye closed
And my back to the wall

Did you think of me at all?
Did you not listen when they told you I would fall
Streets were burning and I could not tell
Did you see? Did you pray for me?
When I was gone
I slept with one eye closed
And my back to the wall

And I left, left it be your chase
To figure out
If moral is you thing
I left you with no doubt
They said I was crazy
They said
Holy is the vicar and the vail
Blind fools betray you with lies
And I say
Maybe but you seam a little pale
Come on let's go dancing in the night
And I'll show you something holy to me….
