2.	Blue Eyes 04:02	lyrics	buy track
I was ramblin and scramblin and searchin for the light it was a teaser it was hazy in the night throughout the scene all the embers gleamed and ashes rained down I was livin in the past i was runnin out of gas losin at the half i was fallin on my ass throughout the scene all the embers gleamed and ashes rained down until the blue eyes beamed like the sun and when the blue eyes beam like the sun you throw the past into oblivion the blue eyes beamed like the sun throw the past into oblivion, we're gonna have fun monotony and botany and reachin for the brass swingin for the fences i was fallin on my ass it didn't matter how hard i tried, the battle raged on the bosses made a trade and the lovin went away symbol of the day was a rusty old blade it didn't matter how hard i tried, the battle raged on
