Lyrics below

What past music does this remind you of?

Little white horses on carousels and quicksand
Am I one of you or one of them
Television dulls my senses and reactions
I can’t seem to find my way again

The stranger that I call joy is
Who you are when I’m too far down
When there’s so many inside voices calling
Where do I, where do I run right now

Be my eyes
Be my eyes
Be my eyes
Be my eyes
When I can’t see

Be my eyes
Be my eyes
Be my eyes
Be my eyes
When I can’t see

I can get caught up on little things and missteps
You rebuild the ground beneath my feet
When I get lost, I’m out of my mind, too in my head
You’re the camera to refocus me

The stranger that I call joy is
Who you are when I’m too far down
When there’s so many inside voices calling
Where do I, where do I run right now

Be my eyes
Be my eyes
Be my eyes
Be my eyes
When I can’t see

Be my eyes
Be my eyes
Be my eyes
Be my eyes
When I can’t see

Be my eyes
Be my eyes
Be my eyes
Be my eyes
When I can’t see

Be my eyes
Be my eyes
Be my eyes
Be my eyes
When I can’t see

Be my eyes
Be my eyes
Be my eyes
Be my eyes
When I can’t see

Be my eyes
Be my eyes
Be my eyes
Be my eyes
When I can’t see
