Orville Peck The Curse of the Blackened Eye

I’ve been hiding out, running from the curse of the blackened eye
Uh huh
Darlin’ I can feel it coming every time
I sat around last year, wished so many times that I would die
Uh huh
Left it all and now I can see the night
It’s true – true it follows me around
Nothing to lose – wouldn’t miss it anyhow

It ain’t the letting go, it’s more about the things that you take with
Uh huh
And I can feel it getting closer with every kiss
You gotta beat or join ’em, try to act surprised
Just flip a coin cuz I’m too bored to lie
It’s true – true it follows me around
Nothing to lose – wouldn’t miss it anyhow

Always said I should work on my escape
Have a heart too long, it’s bound to break
Acting out the opus of your last eternal ache
Boy, just sing the song for heaven’s sake

It’s true – true it follows me around
Nothing to lose – wouldn’t miss it anyhow
It’s true – true it follows me around
Nothing to lose – lost it all anyhow

Northeast sun, northeast sun
Northeast sun, yeah – northeast sun
