Kate Nash - One Eye lyrics

One faithful night I was driving around town It was late, I was tired and feeling down I like to drive to take my mind off all the stuff That stresses me out and that keeps me up And sometimes when I’m driving I put two and two together I’d read the email earlier that day but thought, “no never” Surely it couldn’t be, surely this wasn’t true The person who betrayed me, who stole it all, was you I took my knife and I held it right in front of him To teach him a lesson in suffering And now he sleeps (he sleeps) With one eye open (God knows) Oh God knows I told him I guess he thought that I was joking But now his face is broken (I’m not) I’m not the kind of girl that Would normally worry that Cut it out so I could show him Now he sleeping with one eye open Let me back this up, I can explain I forgot to mention I’ve been driving in the rain I was in shock, a sort of catatonic state But I tried to speak, I tried to breathe, I couldn’t break The car it flipped, I flew into a ditch It was in the hospital I first got the edge I was laying in my blood soaked clothes when I knew what to do Almost dying, it made me want to hurt you I took my knife and I held it right in front of him To teach him a lesson in suffering And now he sleeps (he sleeps) With one eye open (God knows) Oh God knows I told him I guess he thought that I was joking But now his face is broken (I’m not) I’m not the kind of girl that Would normally worry that Cut it out so I could show him Now he sleeping with one eye open That’s what he’s got now, one eye open Ooh, one eye open That’s what he’s got now, one eye open One eye open I kept it as a souvenir So you can see I’m always here I wear it like a locket around my neck It’s watching out for me so I never forget And now he sleeps (he sleeps) With one eye open (God knows) Oh God knows I told him I guess he thought that I was joking But now his face is broken (I’m not) I’m not the kind of girl that Would normally worry that Cut it out so I could show him Now he sleeping with one eye open That’s what he’s got now, one eye open Ooh, one eye open That’s what he’s got now, one eye open One eye open
