Lyrics
Shyness of a wasted kind
Wavering, waxen
She holds out on asking her burning mind
Personal in spite of it
A perfect day to finish it
She?s thinner than air
Philosophy lost on attention that wasn?t quite there
Pushing her hair back she smokes her cigar
While she chases the man who will take her too far
She?s already fading
Confidence got on a whim
A world that is whirling within
I am the eye of the world
Confessing to what I know not
Choosing to strike while I?m hot
I am the eye of the world
Pushing her hair back she smokes her cigar
While she chases the man who will take her
Stretching her arms back she still has their eye
While she chooses the one who will take her this time
Personal in spite of it
A perfect day to finish it
It?s over inside
I am the eye of the world
Pushing her hair back she smokes her cigar
While she chases the man who will take her
Stretching her arms back she still has their eye
While she chooses the one who will take her
While she chases the man who will take her
