The Blue and the Black Lyrics by Collapsing Scenery

Stress Positions

2019

Show me your eyes, show me, show me your eyes
Look in my eyes, look in, look in my eyes
Ain't nothing left for you to hide behind
Now show me your eyes, look in, look in my eyes
There's only one difference between you and me
Every single card I'm holding you can see
I never gave you this authority
And I don't recognize your power, see?
After decades of plunder, sanctioned by law
What's to stop you from murder when you know you'll just walk?
If this is order, then you answer to a different God
Sewing chaos then pretending that it's yours to solve
If you steal from sleeping beasts
You best hope they stay asleep
Show me your eyes, show me, show me your eyes
Look in my eyes, look in, look in my eyes
Ain't nothing left for you to hide behind
Now look in my eyes, show me, show me your eyes
There's only one difference between you and me
Every single card I'm holding you can see
I never gave you the authority
I don't recognize your power, see?
He who will punish will be punished in turn
You laid the foundation for cities to burn
If this is justice, then you answer to a lower law
If this is peace, then you've opened up the door for war
If you steal from sleeping beasts
You best hope they stay asleep
But the winter's over now
We're wide awake and won't be cowed
Show me your eyes, show me, show me your eyes
Look in my eyes, look in, look in my eyes
Ain't nothing left for you to hide behind
Pig, look in my eyes, show me, show me your eyes
Show me your eyes, show me, show me your eyes
Look in my eyes, look in, look in my eyes
Ain't nothing left for you to hide behind
So, look in my eyes, show me, show me your eyes
