Doctor, My Eyes Lyrics
Ain't these supposed to be my glory days?
Late nights, that I can’t even feel my face
Hate going out, but you said it was just a phase
I’m not sure that'll ever change
Will it ever change?
Red Bull and tequila keep me upright in the night
Knew I should've kept my ass inside
My friends wouldn't let me, they know I
[Pre-Chorus]
Most of the time I feel too much
So I try not to feel at all
Staring at the ceiling, I
Staring at the writing on the wall
Is there some type of
Is there some typе of pill I could take?
That would make it all go away
[Chorus]
Doctor, would you give mе something
Would you, would you?
Doc, I'm only 20 something
Would you, would you?
I'm way too young to feel this numb, yea
Would you, would you?
My eyes, I think they're already going
'Cause I don't see things too clearly
Think I could use a little perspective from you
I do
'Cause my mind's always racing
And I've been trying to slow the pace with
Red Bull and tequila keep me upright through the day
Knew I should've kept my ass inside
But I gotta work this nine to five
[Pre-Chorus]
Most of the time I feel too much
So I try not to feel at all
Staring at the ceiling, I
Staring at the writing on the wall
Is there some type of
Is there some type of pill I could take?
That would make it all go away
[Chorus]
Doctor, would you give me something
Would you, would you?
Doc, I'm only 20 something
Would you, would you?
I’m way too young to feel this numb, yea
Would you, would you?
About

This melancholic acoustic song creates an intimate atmosphere which highlights Khamari’s ideas of personal introspection and a moment of change in one’s life. Whether these changes are physical or emotional.
On Ones To Watch, Khamari mentions the thought process of writing Doctor My Eyes.
When I wrote it I had moved from Boston to LA and was trying to make sense of my life. A lot of things were shifting too fast to keep up with, but things I hoped would change stayed the same.
