| I thought that I knew where my heart, it had landed | |
| I thought that I'd worked it all out | |
| I thought you'd be willing to hold me at night and | |
| I thought that that's what I would want | |
| But I was a blind man in love with a demon and I couldn't figure it out | |
| Your bright black eyes have started to quench all the light in my soul | |
| Your bright black eyes have stared to strip all the sense from my mind | |
| This desert, it seems to have no plans of ending | |
| So I have to make it my home | |
| You gave me a chance, now I know I can't take it | |
| I'd rather just be here alone | |
| Your bright black eyes have started to quench all the light in my soul | |
| Your bright black eyes have started to strip all the sense from my mind | |
| I have let you play me and take me to places that I thought that I couldn't find | |
| Your bright black eyes have started to quench all the light in my soul | |
| Your bright black eyes have started to strip all the sense from my mind | |
| Don't talk to me about love | |
| This has nothing to do with that word | |
| This is just good old-fashioned exploitation | |
| You're not serious | |
| So just like a dog that returns to his vomit | |
| I guess that I do it because | |
| I get no more pleasure from self-deprecation | |
| It's not as much fun as it was | |
| Your bright black eyes have started to quench all the light in my soul | |
| Your bright black eyes have started to strip all the sense from my mind |
