Uncle Tupelo Black Eye
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
