Lyrics
X-RAY
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.
She's the flutter in my heart
The springs in my step
My empty head
Sees the lump form in my throat
The view in my minds eye
My empty heart, heart, heart, heart, heart
My heart, heart, heart, heart
She's got her suspicions
(X-ray x-ray x-ray x-ray)
Romantic intuition
(X-ray x-ray x-ray x-ray)
She sees through me with her
X-ray, x-ray, x-ray, x-ray vision
X-ray, x-ray, x-ray, x-ray vision
Sees me shifting in my seat
Picks that in a heart beat
My empty head
Sees the tongue get to my cheek
My conscience bleak
My empty heart, heart, heart, heart, heart
In My heart, heart, heart, heart
She's got her suspicions
(X-ray x-ray x-ray x-ray)
She's got x-ray vision
(X-ray x-ray x-ray x-ray)
She sees through me with her
X-ray, x-ray, x-ray, x-ray vision
X-ray, x-ray, x-ray, x-ray vision
And with this power
She can see
Through solid objects
Like you and me
