People say to see is to believe |
|
Then they just believe in that they can perceive |
|
What they see is not the total view |
|
Filtered between the me and you |
|
But I'm trying so hard just to tell you I care |
|
And I've wanted so long to tear it all away |
|
Tear it all away |
|
People say, "Well you just had to be there" |
|
And all the time you know they've never been there |
|
And it makes me sad to sit and think |
|
All those empty souls are nearly at the brink |
|
But I'm trying so hard just to open my eyes |
|
To seeing some things that tear it all away |
|
Tear it all away |
|
People grow up and learn to drive some car |
|
But I did that and it doesn't get you far |
|
The things you want are never to be found |
|
And in the end it's all some run-around |
|
But I'm trying so hard just to keep to myself |
|
The things that I hope will tear it all away |
|
Tear it all away |
|
I thought you would know |
|
Oh I thought you would know |
|
People say they think that they are sure |
|
But they turn away and don't go back no more |
|
What they saw was not the perfect sight |
|
Just their own face reflected in the night |
|
But I'm trying so hard just to tell you it's now |
|
And I'm gonna keep on trying to tear it all away |
|
Tear it all away |
