My Right Eye - Laurie Anderson

Concentration.

Empty your mind

Let the rest of the world go by

Hold your breath.

Hold your breath.

Close your eyes

Rocks and stones.

Broken bones

Everything eventually comes crawling home

In the night.

In the night

Please forgive me if I fall short of your mark

But there are things still buried in my heart, pause

Heart pause.

Heart pause.

Then vanish.

Then vanish

Unstoppable time.

All the things you left behind

In the night.

In the night

Concentration.

Empty your mind

Let the rest of the world go by

And when the tears fall from both my eyes

They fall from my right eye because I love you

And they fall from my left eye 'cause I cannot bear you

Rocks and stones.

Broken bones

Everything eventually comes crawling home

In the night.

In the night

Comes crawling.

In the night.

Comes crawling.

In the night

Comes crawling home.

In the night.

In the night
