In the light of day

I just want to feel things like you
Then i could know how to love you.
If i could just see inside your head
I would know who to be instead.

But it wouldn't be me.
It wouldn't be me.
But just a word from you would change me.

If i could just peel the skin from you,
Then i would know how to touch you.
Give you my hands like lovers do.
I would know where to lead you.

But would you ever come with me?
Would you ever come with me?
I couldn't take your hand and lead you nowhere.

Inside, nothing stays the same.
It's like a race to the one who takes the blame.
In your eyes, i see the lies unfold.
That's not the way that the story's meant to go.

If i could be there to pull you through,
You could use your nails to save you.
If i could be the one who really knew,
The one you need to tell your secrets to.

Do you feel but resist?
Do you feel but resist?
Do you know i exist?
Could you ever want me like this?

Inside, nothing stays the same.
It's like a race to the one who takes the blame.
In your eyes, i see the lies unfold.
That's not the way that the story's meant to go.

In the dark, it's right
In the dead of night,
But it spills away,
In the light of day
