Miles of Eyes

I’m going back
I can’t stay here
Miles and miles of lonely eyes
I’m going back
To Mama’s arms
Miles of eyes dehumanised
I hear the sound of hungry hearts
Calling to a time gone by
The paling skin of the day
Miles of eyes dehumanised

I’m so bored with the everyday
I’m so bored with the everyday
I’m so bored with the everyday

I know I’ve been before I am
Before I lived beneath these lies
Soldiers in the ranks of time
They all lived before they died
I’m going back
I can’t stay here
Miles and miles of lonely eyes
I’m going back to Mama’s arms
Miles of eyes dehumanised

I’m so bored with the everyday
I’m so bored with the everyday
I’m so bored with the everyday
