lyrics

Well I can't see the dents that I made in your door
can't find the shoes that I left on your floor
my nights have been hazy since I fell in love with you
but if you see right through me I'll see right through you too

Pill bottles gone empty my head in the clouds
neighbors complaining that my music's too loud
guitars like snakes...their bite can give you the blues
but if you see right through me I'll see right through you too

Nothing in common but an urge to be free
from shackles that lead to where others may be
the sort that grows older with everything left to do
but if you see right through me I'll see right through you too

From the top of your head to your feet on the ground
from the way that you look when there's no one around
if a tree falls and hits you will the forest rate it coup
but if you see right through me I'll see right through you too

Ain't got no home I'm cold to the touch
this wind tears my clothes but I ain't got much
Sold what I owned and stole what I need
I stake out your house...my ears start to bleed
I hear him whispering and telling you lies
born again my ass...a part of me dies
but you're watching me too I can smell your perfume
taking the piss out of my bedroom
teaching each other things we never knew
but if you see right through me I'll see right through you too
