[Intro] [Verse 1] The green eye The green eye It sees, it sees You wear a smile like a coat Heavy and tailored for the crowd But the air begins to thin As the glass starts to give way A sudden flash of emerald light Finds the shame you try to hide Every wall is made of water Every secret starts to slide [Chorus] One green eye Through the overexposed skin One green eye Watching all the old leaves burn One green eye new ink on new pages One green eye I'm not hiding anymore [Verse 2] I felt the sting of being known Like a mirror turned toward the sun A lonely chrysalis, a frantic ghost Nowhere left for me to run It cut through every plastic word Left me standing in the hall Just a breath of raw identity Watching every pretension fall [Chorus] [full band, driving rhythm] One green eye Through the overexposed skin One green eye Watching all the old leaves burn One green eye new ink on new pages One green eye I'm not hiding anymore [Bridge] There is light through the cracks where the perfect surface broke I am terrified and soaring free from everything I spoke Strip away the heavy armor, leave the skeleton to dry I am finally found in that unblinking iris sky [Chorus] One green eye Through the overexposed skin One green eye Watching all the old leaves burn One green eye new ink on new pages One green eye I'm not hiding anymore [Outro] Into the naked truth Tell me now, green eye Who's no longer hiding? Fearless dreamers or fearless fools?
