Hands Like Houses
Perspectives
[Verse 1]
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

[Refrain]
I'll make amends, I'll make believe
I'll make my mind up, make you see
I'll take a chance, I'll take a moment
All for nothing

[Chorus]
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)

[Verse 2]
The lights left on all night
The locks have all been changed while I'm inside
[Refrain]
And I'm beating down the door
Knuckles bloodied, broken, raw
Trying to take these walls and turn them inside out
It's all for nothing

[Chorus]
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

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

[Breakdown]
It's all for nothing
It's all for nothing

[Pre-Chorus]
All my life
I tried letting you inside
[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
You just don't get it
(You just don't get it)
It's all for nothing
(You just don't get it)
