"Shy Eyes" lyrics - CAGE THE ELEPHANT
Take, take this broke, this broken heart
This heart of mine
Break, these chains are broken
Unclothe my eyes with waves of light
[Pre-Chorus:]
I've always been a fighter, these chains
But kept it out of sight, no lie
Caught in my emotions
Take these wrongs, make them right
[Chorus:]
What's behind those shy eyes, shy eyes?
Have I become a past time, passed by?
What's behind those shy eyes, shy eyes?
Shy eyes, shy eyes
[Post-Chorus:]
You cut through my human condition
You cut through my human condition
Face to face, hiding right behind
Those eyes
Shake my disposition
Test my faith, bathed in light
[Chorus:]
What's behind those shy eyes, shy eyes?
Have I become a past time, passed by?
What's behind those shy eyes, shy eyes?
Shy eyes, shy eyes
[Post-Chorus:]
You cut through my human condition
You cut through my human condition
[Bridge:]
Blooming flowers wake
Daylight's at the gate
Wherever I roam
My soul to take
[Chorus:]
I don't believe those shy eyes, shy eyes
I won't be just a past time, passed by
What's behind those shy eyes, shy eyes?
Shy eyes, shy eyes
What's behind those shy eyes, shy eyes?
Have I become a past time, passed by?
What's behind those shy eyes, shy eyes?
Shy eyes, shy eyes
[Post-Chorus:]
You cut through my human condition
You cut through my human condition
You cut through my human condition
