Poison Eye Lyrics

I heard the sound bite, I read your words right.
I saw the light, I heard you singing.
I know this song.
It's my turn to write, I put this hook inside
So you won't soon forget.
I got the radar, I can see so far

With my poison eye,
Yeah, my poison eye

When I look hard, I see in the stars
What you've done and what lies.
Awaiting for you, when I look down,
I see the ground.
I won't make a sound, I won't need to look at you

Inside the phone lines, you think you'll hide
And you'll be alright.
You're in my sidelines; you'll have no time
Even to cry.
I see your pain, I see my face on your fear
I got the radar, I can see so far

With my poison eye,
Yeah, my poison eye.

When I look hard, I see in the stars
What you've done and what lies.
Awaiting for you, when I look down
I see the ground.
I won't make a sound,
I won't need to look at you

I can see sparks over a lake at midnight.
I see the smiles falling from your face.
But you're in the dark, you're in a maze;
All you can do is sit here and wait for me
And I'm coming.

I know the low road I wrote the code
To break in your heart.
I see the angles, I draw the cards
That burden you so; I have the sight
That follows you morning and night.
I got the radar, I can see so far
With my poison eye,
Yeah, my poison eye,
My poison eye.

Great riff.... the lyrics are super creepy; in my opinion they would've been better matched with darker music, maybe something acoustic or more metal. But fun, catchy song nonetheless. For some reason I associate it with airline travel
