Same Old Eyes

It’s hit and miss, just stepping out the door

You run the risk of seeing more

A steady stream of ghosts who’ve fallen hard

Without saying a thing, give you the whole nine yards

All I want to do is ride

See the world anew with the same old eyes

I keep hearing the same discordant lullaby

Seems I see here is all merchandise

It’s telling me it’s what it’s all about

Still I’m willing to give it the benefit of the doubt

All I want to do is ride

See the world anew with the same old eyes

But I’ve been fooled before, open an eye

To believe what was, the same, same old eyes

The same old sleeping care

Just waking up now, to the struggle ahead

It’s hit and miss, just stepping out the door

You run the risk of seeing more

A steady stream of ghosts who’ve fallen hard

Without saying a thing, give you the whole nine yards

All I want to do is ride

See the world anew with the same old eyes
