Another Pair of Eyes

Fingers left, fingers left, fingers go right
Another pair of eyes locking with mine tonight
Can they see the fear, the fire? My desire to love is growing dimmer
But my heart is putting up a fight

We just got here and I already want to leave
Now I'm curious can they hear my tapping feet?
Tapping to the monotony, I've got to be on my way out again
Guess it's time to head back to the sea
I see too many names
Is this a game?
I don't want to play again

Now I'm looking at the black sky
Getting ready for another empty bed tonight
My fingers are flexed
I wonder who's next
But I'd rather be lonely than wish I looked left

I can't fight this feeling
Don't know what I'm dealing with
But still I swim despite my heartstring's atrophy
It feels like I'm slowly going insane

Take two steps forward, anxiety begun
The clock is ticking, the race already won
With one step back, I'm still at square one

Take two steps forward, anxiety begun
The pressure's building, the race already won
With one step back, I'm still at square one
