lirik lagu eyes in the city – harrowed harbingers
[verse]
a new dream born in back of a garage
brick by brick they built it for accord
to pull their strings and fold their wings in a cage
they’d play their souls but wouldn’t pay
the tolls
they’d flake
they’d fold
their dream
they’d flake
it’d seem
their dream
so blind
no eyes
for the light
refracting
retracting
in the night
to mask it all in confidence like the stage
to pretend that it’d be right for the crowd
like blond mice scurrying to their demised
stark in a smile but wouldn’t play
the while
[chorus]
there’ll be no eyes in the city tonight
he’s just blinded by the fantasy of a stage
thinks his poetry will bring him back his light
i wonder how well his dreams will age
[verse]
paralysed by indifference for a while
darkened skies as an effigy for our smile
putting fingers to strings and blood to ink
they’d play their souls but wouldn’t pay
the tolls
they’d flake
they’d fold
their dream
they’d flake
it’d seem
their dream
so blind
no eyes
for the light
refracting
retracting
in the night
squandering time and folding on their rhyme
more words spilling out with growing doubt
all the words they could’ve done without
stark in a smile but wouldn’t play
the while
[chorus]
there’ll be no eyes in the city tonight
he’s just blinded by the fantasy of a stage
thinks his poetry will bring him back his light
i wonder how well his dreams will age
[bridge]
what could’ve bin, my cardinal sin
i’m lax like the luck that i’m pullin in
life’s like a river, rush me round
my life’s like the ocean, run me aground
my eyes in the city, my eyes on the dirt
calling in effort like teasing a flirt
i’m back in burbs and i’m wrinkled like cuddy
thinking bout time but my sight gettin muddy
lick slick like i’m sick, side eyed like a pr-ck
ill on the pill while i’m watching us spill
our hearts on the floor i’m watching a stain
my eyes in the city, morality’s pain
[solo]
[chorus]
they’re be no eyes in the city tonight
he runs a ring, we’ll watch him sing, they’re a cage
hopes his aria will take him to his stage
i wonder how our dreams will age
