i'm searching for the cure
an antidote to heal me
desperately i try to chase
away the lines that haunt my face
but the truth wins everytime
the lights are coming on
all the glitz is gone
i'm staring at the view from the inside
so this is the real me
i don't like what i see
staring at the view from the inside
so welcome to my world
the ultimate illusion
i've hidden in words and melody
now they're comin' back on me
yeah, the hand they bite is mine
the lights are coming on
all the glitz is gone
i'm staring at the view from the inside
so this is the real me
i don't like what i see
staring at the view from the inside
tryin' hard to just get by
but blessedly i'm failing
the lights are clearly on
all the glitz is gone
i'm staring at the view from the inside
so this is the real me
do you like what you see
staring at the view from the inside
