Lyrics[edit | edit source]

Upon the empty corner of her grace
I scratch at my eyes until I pause
A mythic vision I thought pa** pa**e
Behind a girl left behind
Behind a girl left behine
Our faces need a little sunshine
Our faces need a little sunshine
To go blind
To go blind

You promise me
I was safe from spells
You promise me
You'd turn back on
You promise me
That i'd get another shot
You promise me
You were there

She showered me with kisses like Gunga Din
She riddled me with s** like Magic Sam
Pausing on your riot, I got lost
Behind the girl left behind

Behind the girl left behind
Our faces need a little sunshine
Our faces need a little sunshine
To go blind
To go blind

You promised me
I was a lazy catch
You promised me
A steady climb
You promised me
There were lives around the block
Your promised me
You'd be there and not here
You'd be there, not here

And flawlessly she muttered her last lines
From a play long rumor, long thought lost
About crimes and Crimea that entails law
Behind a girl left behind
Behind a girl left behind
Our faces need a little sunshine
Our faces need a little sunshine
To go blind
To go blind
