So you think that you have found
A better life that you should live
And you're through givin' it all away
I wish there's something I could sayLike the time you looked into the mirror
And saw someone else lookin' back
I wish I could find the words
But there's nothing that even comes close'Cause there ain't nobody ever looked at me
Without lookin' right through me
There ain't nobody ever looked at me
Without lookin' right by me
And you can't go on when the knife feels like justiceWhen the sun dies down and the air grows cold
And the moon plays tricks in the night
Crawlin' low like a snake out of sight
Your guide is the northern lightYou wanna laugh, say I'm insane
Don't have the sense to come in from the rain
I know how to keep myself between the dropsThere ain't nobody ever looked at me
Without lookin' right through me
There ain't nobody ever looked at me
Without lookin' right by me
And you can't go on when the knife feels like justiceSlip away
Slip away
Slip awaySo you think that you have won me over
By settin' me on fire
With the sound of your beating heart
And you're burnin' hot desireLike the time I looked at your reflections
And saw someone else lookin' back
It's a shame things happen that way
'Cause there's no one that even comes closeAnd there ain't nobody ever looked at me
Without lookin' right through me
There ain't nobody ever looked at me
Without lookin' right by meAnd you can't go on when the knife feels like justice
I said you can't go on when the blade tears inside you
You can't go on when the knife feels like justice
