"Shaky Eyes" lyrics

"Shaky Eyes"

Last night everybody loved me
And nothing hurt too much
Been hiding out in rooms with no names
Michael's getting hooked on the stuff

Nobody's been to the bottom
But baby, have you heard?
They let me be the one with the shovel
Let me do my worst

I traded in my western sky
For a pair of shaky eyes
There's got to be some kind of reason
Crusading children go by
Don't everybody cry
I'll come running whenever you need me

There's rain in Mexico City
La Condesa is soaking wet
They're struggling down in Houston town
And LA bakes like a forgotten cake

I'm still dancing a line in the middle of the room
Jesus Christ, won't you give me an answer?
Whatever you're thinking, I already know
You got nothing to match my nothing

I traded in my western sky
For a pair of shaky eyes
There's got to be some kind of reason
Crusading children go by
Don't everybody cry
I'll come running whenever you need me

When they call the dance, dance like fire
They've been looking at you through a two-way mirror
Nobody tells you joy can kill you
Coming in the front door like a river

I traded in my western sky
For a pair of shaky eyes
There's got to be some kind of reason
Crusading children go by
Don't everybody cry
I'll come running whenever you need me
Whenever you need me

I traded in my western sky
For a pair of shaky eyes
There's got to be some kind of reason
Crusading children go by
Don't everybody cry
I'll come running whenever you need me

I traded in my western sky
For a pair of shaky eyes
There's got to be some kind of reason
Crusading children go by
Don't everybody cry
I'll come running whenever you need me
