The Curse of the Blackened Eye

I've been hiding out, running from the curse of the blackened eye Uh-huh Darlin' I can feel it coming every time I sat around last year, wished so many times that I would die Uh-huh Left it all and now I can see the night It's true, true it follows me around Nothing to lose, wouldn't miss it anyhow It ain't the letting go, it's more about the things that you take with Uh-huh I can feel it getting closer with every kiss You gotta beat or join 'em, try to act surprised Just flip a coin 'cause I'm too bored to lie It's true, true it follows me around Nothing to lose, wouldn't miss it anyhow Always said I should work on my escape Have a heart too long, it's bound to break Acting out the opus of your last eternal ache Boy, just sing the song for heaven's sake It's true, true it follows me around Nothing to lose, wouldn't miss it anyhow It's true, true it follows me around Nothing to lose, lost it all anyhow Northeast sun Northeast sun Northeast sun Yeah, northeast sun
