Queens Of The Stone Age - Keep Your Eyes Peeled

Don’t look, just keep your eyes peeled
Thoughtless, traipsing my minds field
Shotgun, never behind the wheel anymore
Danger, monsters of smoke & mirror
Slowly, can one so lost be found?

& I know. You will never believe
I play this as though I’m alright
If life is but a dream, then
Wake me up.

Fallen leaves realize they are no friend of autumn
The view from hell is blue sky
So ominously blue.
I daydream until all the blue is gone

& I know. You will never believe
I play this as though I’m alright
If life is but a dream, then
Wake me.

Underwater is another life
Disregarding every myth we write
Eagerly alive
Rag doll churning
Over & over, gasping in horror
So breathless you surface
Just as the next wave is…

Big smile, really a show of teeth
Without a care in a world of fear
Lonely, you don’t know how I feel
Praise god, nothing is as it seems
