My mind's eye

When I look all around me,
It's not hard to see what's goin' on,
The bad guys get the sympathy,
And it's hard to tell what's right from wrong,

There's a fire on the city streets,
It's eclipsing the moon,
But it's all just a haze to me anyway,
Everything gets so confused

CHORUS:
And it's blurring my sight,
Spinning round on the wheel of life,
Feel so alone here tonight,
Here in the shadows of my mind's eye -
Trying to see what's going on,
Then understand what's going wrong.

You went off with the pirates,
And they took you to lunch,
To a greasy spoon diner,
And got you so drunk

Saw your face in a newsflash,
On the evening news,
You should never have been there,
So they had you removed

And it's blurring my sight,
Spinning round on the wheel of life,
Feel so alone here tonight,
Here in the shadows of my mind's eye -
Trying to see what's going on,
Then understand what's going wrong.
