The Surface

And here you are all in

Nightmares can turn to happy endings

There is not a road I wouldn’t take with you

I’ve seen where the heart goes

When it is burning

I’ve followed smoke signals

And turned up with nothing

We can’t turn back time

But I wouldn’t want to

If I had done anything different

Would I be here with you

You’re, you’re, you’re not alone

I’m right here

You look at me

You stare at me, and I scream

I can’t keep it inside too long

Can you see what I’m thinking

Is it like looking at the stars on the darkest night

But you, you, you know that you’re not running

From something real

You’ve created an enemy

Could I convince you to trust more quickly

Didn’t you notice I was trying to make it easy

Didn’t you notice the way that I looked at you

Was I being obvious

I thought I was see-through

I’ve got a lot to say until I need to say it

I wish my arguments were as good as in my head

If you’d look at me closely you’d see

That I’ve opened up

Nothing’s too far from the surface

Just look at the way that I look at you

You look at me

You stare at me, and I scream

I can’t keep it inside too long

Can you see what I’m thinking

Is it like looking at the stars on the darkest night
