Take a good look at me
Ask me anything you want
And I will try my best to
Raise your confidence in
Me and all I know
Of the world, and all I know
Of myself
If you so desire to hear it
The city shines around us
Sirens cry below our feet
And yet the only thing you
Care to listen to is
Me and what I think
Of the world and what I think
Of myself
There's just so much that I need to know
Like why your lungs are filled with dust
And why your eyes meet mine for only just a second
Before they fall
Can I hope to ever earn your trust
Do you see today and chalk it up to fortune
Or something more
Something more
Something's strange about you
You're not what I expected
And it's hard to read you so I'm
Afraid to ask you what you see
In the world and what you see
In myself
Maybe it's best that I never know
Why your lungs are filled with dust
And why your eyes meet mine for only just a second
Before they fall
Can I hope to ever earn your trust
Do you see today and chalk it up to fortune
Or something more
Something more
Maybe it will stay like this forever
You go back to your cave, and I my tower
Loneliness is easier than pain
And I guess I'll never know
Why your lungs are filled with dust
And why your eyes met mine for only just a second
Before they fell
Could I've hoped to ever earn your trust
Did you see that day and chalk it up to fortune
Or something more
Something more
