Lyrics The War on Drugs

The War on Drugs

Eyes To The Wind

I was sailin' down here on the wind

When I met you and I fell away again

Like a train in reverse down a dark road

Carrying the whole load

Just rattling the whole way home

Have you fixed your eyes to the wind?

Will you let it pull you in again?

On the way back in?

I’m a bit run down here at the moment

Let me think about it babe

Let me hold ya

There’s a cold wind blowing down my old road

Down the backstreets where the pines grow

Where the river splits the undertows

But I’d be lying to myself if I said that I didn’t mind

Leave it hanging on a line

Lost inside my head

Is this the way I’ll be denied, again?

So I'll set my eyes to the wind

But it won’t be easy

To leave it all again

Just bit run down here

There's just a stranger

Living in me

As you set your eyes to the wind

And you see me pull away again

haven't lost it on a friend

I'm just bit run down here at the moment

Yeah, I'm all alone here

Living in darkness
