<\/a>1. Turning A Blind Eye<\/span> “The Sixes” is the second release by Dead Fish Handshake. The band enlisted Sevendust songwriter\/guitarist, Clint Lowery, to produce their second effort. The result is DFH’s strongest work to date. With “Turning A Blind Eye” leading the way as the first single, this record expands the sound that was established on “Across State Lines” and raises the creative bar on all levels. Clint Lowery contributes backing vocals on “The Blackest Skies” as well as co-writing “Lifespan” with DFH and fellow Sevendust \/ Call Me No One, partner in crime, Morgan Rose.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n TURNING A BLIND EYE<\/p>\n\n\n\n A warning sign like a traffic light, Turning a blind eye Anxiety has quietly Turning a blind eye Yeah, I waited for someone Released: <\/strong>June 06, 2012 Published by: Saturday Morning Car Tunes [ASCAP], Days To Forget [ASCAP], Train Wreck Chords [ASCAP], Birkelbach Entertainment [ASCAP], CTL Publishing [ASCAP] E-MOTIONLESS<\/p>\n\n\n\n A self destructive pattern that the broken pieces made Nobody can move Now there\u2019s some common ground here between both you and I Nobody move no body moved Credits: Published by: Saturday Morning Car Tunes [ASCAP], Days To Forget [ASCAP], Train Wreck Chords [ASCAP], Birkelbach Entertainment [ASCAP], CTL Publishing [ASCAP]<\/p>\n\n\n\n RECQUIESCAT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Death will take forever THE BLACKEST SKIES<\/p>\n\n\n\n Can I think for myself?

from green to yellow then turns red again
I\u2019m reticent by accident
When all your thoughts, they all just started crashing down
We all will fall sometimes<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The moment, gone and passed you by
Turning a blind eye
It\u2019s by design, but what a way to live your life<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Distracted focus from what could\u2019ve been
Its breaks your will and as pressure builds
I live another nightmare<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The moment, gone and passed you by
Turning a blind eye
It\u2019s all by your design
Turning a blind eye
The moment, gone and passed you by
Turning a blind eye
It\u2019s by design
But what a way to live your life<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yeah, I waited but someone never came<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019re fighting with yourself every day, she claimed
And in your indecision, you\u2019re just lying to yourself<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019ll stay right where you left me abandoned and bruised
In time this war is over
And it\u2019s all we\u2019ve been waiting for<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
I fight those same old conflicts every night inside
Looks like I know you better than I even know myself<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m motionless
Nobody move no body moved
Emotionless<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lie in patience
Death will take forever I\u2019m lying patient<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Standing out on the edge again
Take some time for yourself
Find a place you can clear your head<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lie in patience until its time
\u2018Cause this stress is heavy
Tonight I\u2019m buried
Underneath the blackest skies but still alive<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lost my faith in humanity
I\u2019m standing inside the wreck again
Hold out hope for some clarity<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m lying patient
Underneath the blackest skies
But still alive<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unaffected at my core
How many times am I gonna live through it?
How many times?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another night where no one helped
How many times am I gonna live through it?
How many times?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Need the light ahead
So go now and drop the loaded gun
And back away
The time has come to give yourself a way<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Someone hold me up again
How many times am I gonna live though it?
How many times?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tie the rope and kick the chair
How many times am I gonna live through it?
How many times?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This second guessing left me here full of doubt
But I know one thing I can live with some pain
And I\u2019ll do all I can to kill it away… Take it away<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Need the light ahead<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under all this time I somehow wasted
Now I always wonder where you are
A thousand miles beneath all of these stars<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In case you find your way back home
And I\u2019ll just sit here with my memories
So at least I\u2019m not alone<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Don\u2019t know where I end or where I begin
And through all these ups and downs
I thought it was the thought that counts
But now I see it all amounts to nothing<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And I\u2019ll be forever haunted by your ghost
If there\u2019s one thing that I hoped you\u2019d know
It\u2019s that I loved you…and I still do<\/p>\n\n\n\n
