The Girl with X-Ray Eyes

[Verse 1] I tried to hang on to myself Don't believe in no-one else And I'm shakin' like a leaf As I fall into the street But the girl with X-Ray eyes She's gonna see through my disguise Going nowhere down a hill It's hard to swallow like the pill That was twisted on your tongue By the sea that was standing still There was no one to be seen No one left to hear my scream [Chorus] So she took me by the hand We followed clues left in the sand As she swallowed space and time We gathered pearls and swine She shot me to the sun Like a bullet from a gun When the deed was done In the morning she was gone [Guitar Solo] [Verse 2] Turn the page and let it go Like your mother told you so Life, it stretches out for miles The truth is on your stereo But the girl with X-Ray eyes She's gonna see through your disguise [Chorus] So she took me by the hand We followed clues left in the sand As she swallowed space and time We gathered pearls and swine She shot me to the sun Like a bullet from a gun When the deed was done In the morning she was gone
