Queens of the Stone Age

Keep Your Eyes Peeled



Lyrics

Don't look, just keep your eyes peeled
Thoughtless, traipsing my minds field
Shotgun, never behind the wheel anymore
Danger, monsters of smoke & mirror
Slowly, can one so lost be found?

& I know. You will never believe
I play this as though I'm alright
If life is but a dream, then
Wake me up

Fallen leaves realize they are no friend of autumn
The view from Hell is blue sky
So ominously blue
I daydream until all the blue is gone

& I know. You will never believe
I play this as though I'm alright
If life is but a dream, then
Wake me

Underwater is another life
Disregarding every myth we write
eagerly alive
Rag doll churning
over & over, gasping in horror
so breathless you surface
just as the next wave is…

Big smile, really a show of teeth
Without a care in a world of fear
Lonely, you don't know how I feel
Praise God, Nothing is as it seems
