Black Eye Lyrics

The song Black Eye is performed by Uncle Tupelo in the album named 89/93: An Anthology in the year 2002 .



He had a black eye he was proud of
But some of his friends
Made him feel somewhere outside
Of everything and everywhere he'd been

Like his brothers he emptied himself
And played it safe like their father
He wanted to remember but he almost always
Forgot what he was gonna say

Black eye
Black eye

When he realized
That this one was here to stay
He took down all the mirrors in the hallway
And thought only of his younger face

Black eye
Black eye
