A Little Death Around the Eyes Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Epths 

Cover art for A Little Death Around the Eyes lyrics by Peter Doherty

Don't want to seem typical in suggesting that every song's about drugs but... "In a hotel room you take your medicine... Feeling any better son? Filling in the cracks (in a nutshell) Feeling any better now? Wish upon a star...

Some vague idea of the man you used to be Oh the man you used to be to me.

(Filling in the cracks) Fe Fi foe thumb I smell the blood of an Englishman Be he alive or be he dead (Filling in the cracks) Wish upon a star"

Being a slave to them as the woman is to her partner. Anyway, one of my favourite songs off the album. (this & Broken Love Song)
