The city slips away too soon

Tonight she's wide awake

Making small talk with Mr. Moon

Singing louder than the rain

On nights like these she can be herself

She forgets I'm there but it's just as well

I always feel like I'm by myself

And she never will, oh never will

She says she hates the fact that men can see

She wants to tear the eyes

out of everything

What makes her feel the way she feels

Like everything is nothing

What makes her see the things she sees

Like everything that's wrong with me

I guess I should stop trying to figure her out

I should know by now that I'm not allowed

Now I know this is not allowed

If I want to keep her coming 'round

She says she hates the fact that men can see

She wants to tear the eyes
