I wish you could see
behind my eyes
I wish you could see
this formulation of lies

It's only a defense
from the abuse that I get
I wish you could see
my life full of shit

I wish you could read
everything I think
I wish I could show you
exactly why I drink

I am a prisoner
within my own mind
The skin and skull
are the only things that bind

If you could see
each broken dream I have
than maybe you would see
what it is I crave

I dont wish to hurt you
or manipulate the truth
It's only a defense
of all the abuse
