Perspectives

Be honest with yourself,
Do you see in your reflection someone else?
You're fogging up the glass,
And looking for direction, to the clothes you can't see past.

I'll make amends, I'll make believe, make my mind up, make you see,
I'll take a chance, take a moment, all for nothing.

All my life, I've tried letting you inside,
To see the world through my eyes, and all I see is time I've wasted
All my life, I thought that I'd lost my mind
If I could just get it right, then you might see, you just don't get it.

The lights left on all night,
The locks have all been changed while I'm inside,
And I'm beating down the door,
Knuckles burning broke and raw,
Trying to take these words and turn them inside out - it's all for nothing.

All my life, I've tried letting you inside,
To see the world through my eyes, and all I see is time I've wasted.
All my life, I thought that I'd lost my mind,
If I could just get it right, then you might see you just don't get it.

I'll make amends, I'll make believe, make my mind up, make you see,
I'll take a chance, I'll take a moment, let it out and let go.

It's all for nothing,
It's all for nothing.
All my life, I've tried letting you inside.

All my life, I've tried letting you inside,
To see the world through my eyes, and all I see is time I've wasted.
All my life, I thought that I'd lost my mind,
If I could just get it right, then you might see you just don't get it.

You just don't get it,
It's all for nothing.
