I See (a lot) Through You

lyrics

You leave me pieces of a puzzle which you swore you'd finish with me
a hundred pieces beginning from the very start
And in the end I never find out what the fragments come to make
because we're always one piece short

But I'm just a child and I love your juvenile games
We can play pretend so long as I decide your name

Well I should know by now

Well I'd love to see you naked as you squirm to cover up
whatever space your hands could ever hope to hold

and I'm not a sadist, but I, I'm just one lifeless human being
and I've not seen dead weight beyond my own

Though you've had your reservations about feeling so exposed
And if I wash your face, would you clean between my toes?

I should know by now

You're so mysterious that you're practically invisible
You're so reserved that you're practically not worth the bother

But I see a lot of me through you,
and the only thing I have to offer you is a colder shoulder
And I want to see myself through you,
but I should know myself by now
