Lyrics

Black Eye

Who wears the black eye?
Who bears the blame?
The black eye will heal
But the shame remains

Who threw the first punch?
Who crossed the line?
Does it really matter
In the course of time

You gotta watch out for the traps they set you in this life
They pit brother against brother and man against wife
You can't be too careful because everything you do
Sooner or later comes back to you

Nobody has all the answers, few of us even have a clue
We live in the darkness afraid of everything we do

You gotta be true to who you are
You pick the game and you choose the part
You can't spend your whole life looking over your shoulder
You gotta look in the mirror when you're pointing your finger


Nobody has all the answers, few of us even have a clue
We live in the darkness afraid of everything that's new

(repeat beginning)
