Select language to translate this lyric
Just before the sun comes up
And floods the wailing wall
She makes love to forget herself
He makes love to recall
Thereâs a trail of total carnage
In the rear view when he looks
Thereâs a tale of fear and loathing
In each chapter of this book
So give me something to celebrate
No matter what the cost
Thereâs a battle raging inside of us
When emerald eyes are lyinâ
Theyâre bloodshot
The damage isnât visible
When she shines a naked flame
The story barely credible
But he tells it justthe same
He talks of far off promised land
Every time he comes around
He whispers darling bend your knees
Before we hit the ground
So give me something to celebrate
No matter what the cost
Thereâs a battle raging inside of us
When emerald eyes are lyinâ
Theyâre bloodshot
You know heâs got it easy
She just sits down and waits
While arrows land on bloody skin
Beyond the city gates
Heâd have made the journey with her
But he got the needle stuck
Sheâs running out of time
Heâs running out of luck
Someday it all may come to pass
Someday a journeyâs end
Bright light city memories
Of lovers and old friends
Thereâs a snowstormon the table
A carpet made of glass
Thereâs a heartbeat like a kick drum
Thereâs a viper in the grass
So give me something to celebrate
No matter what the cost
Thereâs a battle raging inside of us
When emerald eyes are lyinâ
Theyâre bloodshot
