Lyrics
I’m only whatever you make me and you make me more and more a villain every day But you don’t know you reap, you sow Whatever you give to me, from yourself you take. Well if you’re a hater, then hate the creator it’s in your image i’m made One eye open and one eye closed Cause i’ll hang myself if you give me rope I lost all my faith and lost all hope That everything means anything at all one eye broken and one eye bruised Cause I gave myself away for you you liar! you don’t love me too It’s easy for you, after all My heart is massive but it’s empty a permanent part of me that innocent artery Is gasping for some real attention Some undivided hypertension I tell it “quiet down, you’re being loud” But it beats harder every time you come around. But do you love the sound? I sleep with One eye open and one eye closed Cause i’ll hang myself if you give me rope I lost all my faith and lost all hope That everything means anything at all one eye broken and one eye bruised Cause I gave myself away for you you liar you don’t love me too It’s easy for you after all Losing you is easier than lying to myself that you love me Losing you is easier than lying to myself that you love me Losing you is easier than lying to myself that you love me Losing you is easier than lying to myself I sleep with One eye open and one eye closed Cause i’ll hang myself if you give me rope I lost all my faith and lost all hope That everything means anything at all one eye broken and one eye bruised Cause I gave myself away for you you liar you don’t love me too It’s easy for you after all
