What the Eyeballs Did Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The blood and hell coming down from the sky
Just picked on you
No recourse, no reason, no right
No way out, no
In the dark storm prying out there
Behind the screen

[Verse 2]
This is just another avarice
As you know the stars in the sky
Can't side with you

[Bridge]
It happens, it happens
Happens

[Verse 3]
Troubled world goes on in silence
But not for you
And every stain that you relied on
Is brightening

[Outro]
What the eyeballs did
They ran and they hid
It's not like it feels
Just that's how it is

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
