What I See

Written by Chuck Dukowski

Lyrics

What I See

This feeling haunts me Behind these eyes, the shell seems so empty Though I wonder if anything lives inside? I wanna live I wish I was dead My heart aches to bleed I'm cheated from what I see Freedom holds a double-edge for me I look in your eyes and see I wanna live I wish I was dead I don't wanna think I'm stuck here and I know it I don't wanna see Make me close my eyes I wanna live I wish I was dead Life's cold and it reaches inside I need to feel but turn my mind off The desperation begins From the start, I see the end Not right, I'm not right, you're not right I've gotta close my eyes I look in your eyes And I see it's always this way Live the lie, take a dive Just to make it die I wanna live I wish I was dead I've just got to close my eyes I've got to close my eyes I've got to close my eyes
