The Wraith Behind Our Eyes

by Alex Izenberg

Lyrics
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush
It's better to have loved and lost than never to have loved, my darlin'
The birds of a feather flock together
The preacher left a dead man runnin'
I do as I say, but don't say as I do
Easy come, easy go, with the pain that you'll never know
My ceaseless visions carry light and law
Of a modern loveโ€™s funeral pyre
Dreamt a dark night and October skies
Illuminate your heart strings law
They played a soft hymn that spoke of the myth of the wraith behind our eyes
Enough is enough
Everybody's got a silver lining and I just wanna paint it gold
My faith could move mountains with a hand to hold
But weโ€™re fighting fire with fire
Man proposes and heaven disposes
Of the big wheels turninโ€™
Back towards the warmest blue
They say that money makes the Earth move
With names that kept stolen kisses
Dreamt a dark night and October skies
Illuminate your heart strings law
They played a soft hymn that spoke of the myth of the wraith behind our eyes
