about
First track from the forthcoming Alex Layton EP.
lyrics
I've made up my mind,
I'm leaving all of this behind,
But does it make me blind if I choose not to see straight.
I'm turning around,
Giving up on the love that I thought I found.
Now I'm homeward bound to get back on my feet yeah.
I ain't no saint naw naw, in the past I've gone astray,
But given time I think that I could find my way.
It's just a shame that I went and lost myself in the first place.
I got a heavy feeling, I know it's nothing new,
But I got a message I've been trying to say to you..., to you...
I don't know what I should do,
Cause I'm afraid to say it's true, I think that I'm just brown-eyed blue.
It comes from my soul,
It's not a thought of something else that I control,
And it could swallow me whole if I put down my defense.
The worry in me,
It was a pain but now it's all that I can see,
This new lens is perfect for me, I can see right through your pretense.
This ain't no blame naw naw, you can try to cut your lies,
But hey now can't you see everybody else is in disguise,
And who am I to try and force you to tell the truth?
I got a heavy feeling, I know it's nothing new,
But I got a message I've been trying to say to you..., to you...
I don't know what I should do,
Cause I'm afraid to say it's true, I think that I'm just brown-eyed blue.
Runnin' away I gotta set things right,
Makin' a play to maybe ditch my plight,
It's gonna be hard but I got to get away from you.
Cause everyday you know I hate that bite,
And I ain't afraid to maybe start a fight,
I'm all up in arms and I got to get the message through
Cause I'm brown-eyed blue yeah.
