Lyrics

Can't See (Useless)

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

We were both cast forth from the same pale hand

And we both moved freely in the shadowlands

And we both were sculpted by the same cold wind

And we both had armor that was made of tin

And I tried to find you, but it's useless

And I tried to speak, but it was useless

And I felt so bad and I didn't know why

And it didn't get better as time went by

I was there for you, but you turned away

And I tried to find you, but you turned away

And I tried to find you, but it's useless

And I tried to speak, but was useless

And I tried to find you, but it's useless

And you're so close, but I can't see you

And you're right there, but I can't see you

And I feel so dumb and I didn't know what to do

You were right there but I can't see you

And I realize that it's useless

And I want to fight, but it's useless

And I know you're there, but it's useless

And you're everywhere, but it's useless

And I tried to say it, but my tongue got tied

And I tried to say it, but I was numb inside

And I can't see you anymore

And my peace of mind has gone through the door

And I realize that it's useless

And I thought I was right, but it was useless

And I know you're there, but it's useless

And you're everywhere, but it's useless

And I can't see now in front of my nose

And I know you're there, and I know you're close

And you're fading away - now you disappear

And I try to focus, but I can't see clear

And I don't know why I feel this way

And I can't control myself anyway

And I don't know why I feel this way

And I can't control myself anyway

And I feel so bad, but it's useless

And I feel so bad, but it's useless

And I feel so bad, but it's useless

And I can't see... now in front of my face.
