Lyrics
I used to lie in my room and just stare
Frustrated eyes flipping pages of air
Gaze after gaze I could see nothing there
I was just a flaw in the scheme
Of everything but nightmarish dreams
No one could stand feeling that way for long
So I chose to regard the whole world as the wrong
And to make my own long assertions in song
I decided I just didn't care
That I'd look and I could see nothing there
(but now)
I lie there staring in her eyes
I lie there staring in her eyes
I watch her be
the sight I wanted so much to see
Oh let me tell you about a pleasure I've found
First you surrender and stop looking around
And then you get the one who you want to lie down
And stare like a corpse in each's eyes
Till you never want to come alive and rise
(and then, but now)
I lie there staring in her eyes
I lie there staring in her eyes
I watch her be
the sight I wanted so much to see
