Lyrics
Surface
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.
But the way you look at me
is so assurin
The world is all you know,
the surface of your skin
Fake smiles and formal laughs,
your laughs of insincerety
to find your perfect life
Despite the ones that die and thrive
on lies you spill down there throats
To build your castle in the sky
It's ok, I'll still fly away
But the way you look at me
is so assurin
The world is all you know,
the surface of your skin
I see right through you
And I know your kind
I can read the pages of the book you live by
I know the truth, almighty dollar signs
trapped inside your bright, smiling eyes
You seem to think that we're a little in the dark
And that's exactly where you start
You find our ignorance amusing
but it's just our chemistry we're using
But the way you look at me
is so assurin
The world is all you know,
the surface of your skin
