Billy Corgan - The Camera Eye lyrics

rate me

Listen, listen:

This is mark I cannot place

This is the wish I dare not leave

Time uncovers what is keeping still

I unaware move against my will

Simon says, "pass on by"

Passions wane, stragglers weep

Hungers fight

For the camera eye

Hold me so

I'll never let you go

Stay with me for a while

(while I sleep)

Momma squeeze

Grace my spine

Walk on thru the camera eye

Listen, listen:

This is the name I cannot speak

This is the flame I dare not douse

Here, things are

We'll never get that far

Close enough to die a time or two or three

Stretch my skin

Restless gods

Maybe turn my heart of hearts

Deposit change in the camera eye

Who needs pain to survive?

I need pain TO CHANGE MY LIFE

In gentle myths and turning leaves we all come to bury truth

Honey choose my wet dream

A naked soul just has to grieve

If I bleed, the camera cries

No one doubts the camera eye

Move fast forward thru the camera eye

Move fast forward thru the camera eye

The camera eye

The camera eye
