"Spider-Eyed / Don't Care" lyrics
Spider-eyed and dreaming of change
After tonight we'll never be the same
We can't turn around
And we're not slowing down
We'll get what we deserve
If we do honest work
There is no leaving this trip—
We're merely skips
It's more than flapping our lips
Or making it
There are many men
With the wrong intent—
Ambition full of life
But principles are dead
If we aren't on the same page
We'll be erased
We won't find out right away
So we won't race
We are not racing for
A shallow grave
Never forget
That we choose our own fate
There is a time and a place
But not a lot
Life isn't something to waste—
Time doesn't stop
Life has many guides
Life has given us eyes
To do more than see:
Hearts and heads must agree
There's a fine line between
Happiness and misery
If the gift of life's to be free
Let's not kill it all with greed
Well, it's come to this point
It's out of my hands
Had to let it go
I've done what I can
Can't keep you from knives
Can't keep you in a cage
Can't make you my wife—
'Cause I can't trust you, babe
It's a matter of strength
I've added it up:
More going insane
Than falling in love
I'll live with the guilt
But I can't live with you
I had to admit
There's nothing I can do
It's out of my hands
Out of control
So get out of my life
Before you swallow me whole
If you die, then you're dead
And I have no regrets
In a way you are more safe
Maybe in a better place
This world wasn't meant for you—
So do what you say
Go ahead and end our love
I don't care anymore
I'll live with the guilt
But I can't live with you
I had to admit
There's nothing I can do
It's out of my hands
Out of control
Get out of my life
Before you swallow me whole
You pushed me too far
Right over the edge
I have not one joke
That no one has said
Can't keep me a prisoner
Can't keep me in a cage
Can't make you feel safe—
'Cause I'm barely okay
I'll live with the guilt
But I can't live with you
I had to admit
There's nothing I can do
It's out of my hands
Out of control
So get out of my life
Before you swallow me whole...
After tonight we'll never be the same
We can't turn around
And we're not slowing down
We'll get what we deserve
If we do honest work
There is no leaving this trip—
We're merely skips
It's more than flapping our lips
Or making it
There are many men
With the wrong intent—
Ambition full of life
But principles are dead
If we aren't on the same page
We'll be erased
We won't find out right away
So we won't race
We are not racing for
A shallow grave
Never forget
That we choose our own fate
There is a time and a place
But not a lot
Life isn't something to waste—
Time doesn't stop
Life has many guides
Life has given us eyes
To do more than see:
Hearts and heads must agree
There's a fine line between
Happiness and misery
If the gift of life's to be free
Let's not kill it all with greed
Well, it's come to this point

Can't keep you from knives
Can't keep you in a cage

Before you swallow me whole...
