(Same riff repeats throughout verse)

You've got eyes that can see right through me
You're not afraid of anything they've seen

I was told that I would feel
Nothing the first time
I don't know how these cuts heal
But in you I found a rhyme

[Verse]

You let me in to a conversation
A conversation only we could make
You break and enter my imagination
Whatever's in there it's yours to take

I was told that I would feel
Nothing the first time
You were slow to heal
But this could be the night

Lyrics for pre chorus 2:

If there is a light you can't always see
And there is a world we can't always be
If there is a dark that we shouldn't doubt
And there is a light, don't let it go out

Chorus 2 is the same as Pre Chorus 2, just play around with the first string.
