Her eyes are open
no one home
My eyes betray me
I am so blind
Her eyes they dazzled
now they're out

The lights are blinding
they keep talking
ask me questions
get no answers
They eye me up
they eye me down
I'm going to jail

Chorus

I am a drunk
I've killed my girl
I'll go to jail
never drive again
I took her life
I took her life

She cried don't drive
you've had too much
She fell asleep
and so did I
The tree it stopped us
did not save her
Eyes of the world
now on me
She was a famous singer

My friends disown me
some family too
My selfish act
has changed my life
Now I do not have one
The County jail
has shaken me
Reflection, deflection
I will have time

Chorus

I am a drunk
I've killed my girl
I'll go to jail
I took her life
I took her life
