Album: Falling Out (2004)

(I Just Wanna) See Through

Well now I see they're screaming harder - and they're throwing things
but I don't need to follow - I don't want to follow
I'm trying to get hollow - trying to get hollow
is there something I can borrow - just until tomorrow

Well now I see they're getting lamer to the point of lying down
the beat is getting softer - the heat is getting colder
the light is getting dim - the substance getting thinner
but I'm still trying to grasp it - they give me meals to choke on

And now you hold his hand
and now he understands
but I don't have to face it - I don't have to chase shit
'cause I just wanna see through - I want to embrace you

Get back where you belong at university
or try to do it our way - try to make it this way
but I don't need to listen - I'll be home for Christmas
I'll see you when it's raining - society is draining

You'll be up and you'll be down in a matter of minutes
I've tried run the distance
tried and get the high fence
but I've never been a sportsman
got picked last when they picked teams
I'm the worst kind of amateur
the kind which never wins the war
though I had the best of teachers
they called me the seeker

And now you...
and now you hold his hand
and now he understands
but I don't have to face it - I don't have to chase shit

'Cause I just wanna see through - I want to embrace you
I just wanna see through - I want to embrace you
oh oh oh! - I just wanna see through - I want to embrace you
you...
