In Vera - Bloodshot Lyrics

Your presence next to me
Is ever so unnerving
Your breath is wet
With the stench of cigarettes
And I'm waiting to see
What you've got to say next

Why would you believe
That I could ever trust you?
I've heard it all before
And you're just one more
I'll be making sure
That you won't be staying long

Wipe that smirk off of your face
Before I do it for you
If you're looking for a new pawn
Then I've got nothing for you

We used to stand on mountains
Dig with our own hands
But now we've been mislead
I refuse to listen
To anyone who claims
The road is paved with gold
We weren't always so far off
We used to stand on mountains
With courage in our hearts
And bruises on our feet
We used to stand on mountains

I put my fingers in the dirt

Cause I'm proving what I'm worth
There's nothing that I deserve
Everything in life is earned
So I put my fingers in the dirt

Some will say to take the easy route
To be idle
But I won't listen

Cause I sleep
With one bloodshot eye open
So tell me that I'm wrong
For not trusting you

You'll learn to sleep
With one eye open
Don't trust blindly
You'll be left with nothing

You'll learn to sleep
With one eye open
Don't trust blindly
