"White Eyes" lyrics - THE WOMBATS

I don't know how to deal with these New York City blues
It's not much of a weekend, when there's one of me and none of you
I'm somewhere in the hotel, I'm scrambling in the dark
But you turned on the sprinklers and now I think I'm in a waterpark

[Pre-Chorus:]
You bleach my heart, you do

[Chorus:]
My white eyes don't care about the opening lines
No matter how hard I try
I need you the most, I need you the most
I slip and miss, a kink in the arithmetic
But baby, who you going home with?
I need you the most, I need you the most

Sometimes I feel the tension, you're the coldest form of war
It's hard to keep my chin up when my guts are lying on the floor
I let you chew the red parts and eat my mind like a cake
11 times round the block and you're the only drug I wanna take

[Pre-Chorus:]
You clean my heart, you do

[Chorus:]
My white eyes don't care about the opening lines
No matter how hard I try
I need you the most, I need you the most
I slip and miss, a flaw in the arithmetic
But baby, who you going home with?
I need you the most, I need you the most
I need you the most

[Pre-Chorus:]
You clean my heart, you do
But still it twists like a Rubik's cube
You, you turn the oceans into streams
You, you take in the best, the best of me

[Chorus:]
My white eyes don't care about the opening lines
No matter how hard I try
I need you the most, I need you the most
I slip and miss, a flaw in the arithmetic
But baby, who you going home with?
I need you the most, I need you the most
I need you the most, I need you the most
I need you the most
