Letras Black Eye - Icie

Black Eye

It all started on the night of our honeymoon
Arguing back and forth about the wedding food
She got her Mum to cook but the fried rice was off
And that’s what set me off
The slap came hard yeah but I deserved it
I was out of line
I shouldn’t of been rude
Besides what was I supposed to do slap her back
Nah! This was my new wife, my new life
Moved into our new place and shared my concerns
Hun! Can we really afford rent here?
She said when you start earning more than me
That’s when your opinion I wanna hear
She wasn’t always this way
She used to smile everyday she was the life of the party
I guess things took a turn when she walked in and saw her Dad
Sleeping with another body
I spoke to Gabs about the situation
He told me she’s your wife put her in her place
So one day I came home, I tried to raise my voice
But her fist put me in my face
I’m out of options I don’t know what to do
And divorce ain’t a process i’m going through
Her mood swings change like the English weather
I really do hope things get better!
You made a fool of me
You pushed me to the edge
One day you’ll see
I tried to love you!
Confidence diminished
Starve a man of respect long enough and he’s finished
My hearts turning to stone
Is this love running dry
Is she Medusa in disguise
2 years in and we hardly speak, I'm feeling drained physically and mentally
But I meant what I said in them wedding vowels
To death do us part no I won’t throw in the towel
But I swear I’m only human, getting used to advances at work from Susan
She knows I’m married and I tell her often
I guess this just how affairs blossom
But treat a man right and he’ll never leave
Push him the edge and one day you’ll see
You made a fool of me
You pushed me to the edge
One day you’ll see
I tried to love you!
I told Susan be cautious of my wife
Told her never ever text my phone after midnight
So then why this night when my phones nowhere near me
Babes! Can you bring my phone over hear please?
The silence spoke clearly
Now she asking questions who’s Suzy
Flies into a jealous rage
Scissors in her hands make their way to my rib cage
I kick her to hallway
Hands round my throat I’m trying block off her airways
I’m so sorry that it’s got to end this way
Grip getting tighter couldn’t you just respect me
Lips turning blue God I’ve killed 2 babies!
