Right through you


Look them in the eye
To show them youre brave
But no one but me
Knows youre just a slave
To this part in the play
You never mean what you say

You come on so strong
You run with the hunt
Dont know whats behind you
Dont show whats in front2
Sometimes you do it to show
To someone you dont know

Like a bird on a limb
Starin down at its toes
No song he could sing
No his voiceccit just froze
And the fear that you keep
Is bottled up there inside

Chorus:
And I see right through you
Right on through
But I know you see right through me too

You put on a good show
Act so in control
But youre laughin too loud
At a joke no one told
Youre not what you appear
Youre just a ghost in the mirror

Sometimes what you saycc
Yeah, you do for effect
You wanna show someone power
You wanna get some respect
But most times you dont know
Nothin about it all

Chorus repeat

Im chippin the rock
But its dark in the mine
Dont look away now
You drive me outta my mind
But I try to act sure
I try to endure

The things that I wanted
So much outta you
A feelin to share
A love that was true
Or maybe I just made it up

Chorus repeat x2

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
