"A Clean Pair of Eyes" Lyrics September 03, 2005 @ 1:15 p.m.
Hear me God, I'm on the level
Mapping silence, seeing things
Crying, laughing like the devil
Before the might of all that's seen
I raise my head and wake to dream
With a clean pair of eyes
Murdered gold and colors splashing
Down like blood, like flowing hair
Faces merging, airplanes crashing
Before the might of all that's true
I raise my head to dream anew
With a clean pair of eyes
A clean pair of eyes
Don't need no one to blame
Don't need no disguise
No sugar to sweet my plate
A clean pair of eyes
Today I need no commentary
Today I do not need to speak
No explanation necessary
Before the might of all that's seen
I raise my head to dream again
With a clean pair of eyes
A clean pair of eyes
Don't need no right or wrong
Don't need no disguise
No sugar to fix my tongue
A clean pair of eyes
Liquid air and flags that ripple
A tamborine of smoking suns
Love that blinds us
Fear that cripples
Before the might of all that's seen
I raise my head to wake to dream
Before the might of all that's true
I raise my head and dream anew
Before the might of all of man
I raise my head and dream again
Dream again
Dream again
Dream again
Dream...
