Black Eye

Black eye from staring through a keyhole at my lover

I swear it's not from his fists

When stockholm syndrome comes to where they're keeping you

You never know what time it is

Black eye is all it's gonna take for me to love you

It's written in my constitution

If you go, you know I'm coming with you

Blind, bound by love

Time is no friend to the ones who wait

For daylight to come

Time looks the same at the ones who hate

And the ones that do nothing

Black eye is what I'm gonna paint for your protection

To cover the tracks that you're leaving

I misplace my face so we can be together

Red lips change how you're perceiving

Time is no friend to the ones who wait

For daylight to come

Time looks the same at the ones who hate

And the ones that do nothing
