(Same riff repeats throughout verse)

You've got eyes that can see right through me

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

If there is a light you can't always see
