C

Love was kind, for a time

G C

Now just aches, and it makes me blind

C

This mirrors holds my eyes too bright

G C

That I can't see the others in my life

C

We too young and heads too strong

G C

To bear the weight of these lover's eyes

C

Cuz I feel numb beneath your tongue

G C

Beneath the curse of these lover's eyes.

F C G C

But do not ask the price I pay, I must live with my quiet rage

F C G C

Tame the ghosts in my head that run wild and wish me dead

F C

Should you shake my ash to the wind

G C

Lord forget all of my sins

F C G C

Oh let me die where I lie beneath the curse of my lover's eyes

C

Cuz there's no drink or drug I've tried

G C

To rid the curse of these lover's eyes

C

And I feel numb beneath your tongue

G C

Your strength just makes me feel less strong
