Between The Eyes Lyrics

I don't like your cheatin' misfit way
I don't stand for givin' it away
So you want some action, ask me why
You say you want to keep me in your target sight

Can't you see the world turn and hear the cries?
Can't you see you're burnin' me right between the eyes?

I don't like your hot and cold device
You know I'm the only one this time

Can't you see the world turn and hear the cries?
Can't you see you're burnin' me between the eyes?
You hardly notice
Can't you see you're burnin' me right between the eyes?
I see you burnin' me between the eyes

I don't like your cheatin' misfit ways
I don't stand for givin' it away
Can't you see the world turn and hear the cries?
Can't you see you're burnin' me between the eyes?
You hardly notice
Can't you see you're burnin' me right between the eyes?

You hardly notice
Can't you see you're burnin' me right between the eyes?
Right between the eyes
Right between the eyes
You hardly notice
Can't you see you're burnin' me between the eyes?
(Between the eyes)
(Between the eyes)
I see you burnin' me between the eyes

I don't like your cheatin' misfit way 
I don't stand for givin' it away 
So you want some action, ask me why 
You say you want to keep me in your target sight

Can't you see the world turn and hear the cries? 
Can't you see you're burnin' me right between the eyes?

I don't like your hot and cold device 
You know I'm the only one this time

Can't you see the world turn and hear the cries? 
Can't you see you're burnin' me between the eyes? 
You hardly notice 
Can't you see you're burnin' me right between the eyes? 
I see you burnin' me between the eyes

I don't like your cheatin' misfit ways 
I don't stand for givin' it away 
Can't you see the world turn and hear the cries? 
Can't you see you're burnin' me between the eyes? 
You hardly notice 
Can't you see you're burnin' me right between the eyes?

You hardly notice 
Can't you see you're burnin' me right between the eyes? 
Right between the eyes 
Right between the eyes 
You hardly notice 
Can't you see you're burnin' me between the eyes? 
(Between the eyes) 
(Between the eyes) 
I see you burnin' me between the eyes

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Having your heart broken by a two-timer who then wants to have sex with you. This sounds like it could be written from a female perspective since this situation is usually what men do with women.
