Perspectives Songtext
von Hands Like Houses

Be honest with yourself
Do you see in your reflection, someone else?
You′re fogging up the glass
In looking for direction
So close you can't see past

I′ll make amends, I'll make believe
I'll make my mind, I′ll make you see
I′ll take a chance, I'll 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 you 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


And the light's left on all night
The locks have all been changed while I'm inside
And I′m beating down the door
Knuckles bloody, broken, raw
I′ll try to take these walls 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 you 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
I'll make my mind, I′ll make you see
I′ll take a chance, I'll take a moment
And 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 you 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
You just don't get it
