David Gray - A Clean Pair of Eyes
Hear me God I’m on the level
Mapping silence seeing things
Crying laughing like the devil
And before the might
Of all that’s seen
I’ll raise my head
And wake to dream
With a clean pair of eyes
Murdered gold and colours flashing
Time like blood like flowing hair
Faces merging airplanes crashing
And before the might
Of all that’s true
I’ll raise my head
And 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 brain
A clean pair of eyes
Today I need no commentary
Today I do not need to speak
No explanation necessary
And before the might
Of al thats seen
I’ll raise my head
And 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 tambourine of smoke suns
Love that blinds up fear that cripples
And before the might
Of all that’s seen
I’ll raise my head
And wake to dream
And before the might
Of all that’s true
I’ll raise my head
And dream anew
And before the might
Of all unnamed
I’ll raise my head
And dream again
Dream again
Dream again
Dream again
Dream again
