I went back to the doctor |
|
To get another shrink. |
|
I sit and tell him about my weekend, |
|
But he never betrays what he thinks. |
|
Can you see the real me, doctor? |
|
I went back to my mother |
|
I said, 'I'm crazy ma, help me.' |
|
She said, 'I know how it feels son, |
|
'Cause it runs in the family.' |
|
Can you see the real me, mother? |
|
The cracks between the paving stones |
|
Look like rivers of flowing veins. |
|
Strange people who know me |
|
Peeping from behind every window pane. |
|
The girl I used to love |
|
Lives in this yellow house. |
|
Yesterday she passed me by, |
|
She doesn't want to know me now. |
|
Can you see the real me, can you? |
|
I ended up with the preacher, |
|
Full of lies and hate, |
|
I seemed to scare him a little |
|
So he showed me to the golden gate. |
|
Can you see the real me preacher? |
|
Can you see the real me doctor? |
|
Can you see the real me mother? |
|
Can you see the real me? |
