Searching With My Bad Eye Closed

[Intro] This is my blind side… Do you hear the static? The void is calling… The silence answers back… [Verse 1] Painted black across my eyes, wrap the blindfold tight I'm drifting through the ether, chasing ghosts into the night Looking for the signal in the static of my mind Is it buried in the dirt or floating somewhere high? [Chorus] Searching with my bad eye closed Stumbling through the smoke and the unknown Is the truth above the clouds? Or six feet down below? Searching with my bad eye closed [Verse 2] Whispers in the wires, pulling at my skin Every answer feels like poison, every question pulls me in If I reach into the darkness, will it swallow me alive? Or will the ground rise up to meet me when I finally dive? [Bridge – build intensity] Stop… you're poisoning the well I can drown here by myself Stop… you're stealing all my time I've been dying since the first breath left my lungs [Chorus – louder, soaring] Searching with my bad eye closed Screaming at the sky that never shows Is salvation in the fire? Or lost inside the cold? Searching with my bad eye closed [Outro – chaotic build and fade] Yeah… my bad eye closed… Keep searching… keep falling… Into the black… into the black…
