Between the Eyes
Twin-A Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know you see
How you get to me
Show me how you do
So I can get to you.

I know I should be watching what I say
But I cannot shut up
And I know I should keep it to myself
But it will not let up.

I will roll with the punches and eventually
You may catch me right between the eyes
Oh but I was aware of the possibilities
But nothing could ever change my mind

My cover's blown
But I don't really mind.
So here I am
So here's my blind side.

I know I should
Keep it to myself
But I cannot shut up
Yea I know I should
Keep it to myself
But it will not let up.

I will roll with the punches and eventually
You may catch me right between the eyes
Oh but I was aware of the possibilities
But nothing could ever change my mind

Old enough to be your whipping boy
It will surely be the death of me
Oh my love to lay that body down
It will surely be the death of me
Be the death of me.

I sing too much
It's like I always do
So call my bluff
And I will follow through.

I will roll with the punches and eventually
You will catch me right between the eyes




Oh but I was aware of the possibilities
But nothing could ever take my mind.
