about

lyrics

The Suit by oblio © 2013

There are things that you won't recognize,
When you reach into hollow eyes.
Tailored to, and stretching thin.
Someone you could dress up in, and I'm afraid…

That If you look inside you won't recognize.
The killer confidence within the face of facelessness.

It ain't true, it ain't true. Just who's eyes am I looking through?
It ain't me, that's… not me. It ain't me in the skin you see.
(Someone is wearing me away.)

Well, the truth will out, right along with the guts.
Feel my good intentions, in your bones, and your trust.
And the blade is out and glistening, with all the words I couldn't…
Bear to say to you, every time that you were listening.

And if you find that you are hollow as well,
With insecurities that stitch up your shell, who's inside?

It ain't true. It ain't true. Just who's eyes are you looking through?
A new suit. A new suit. Flesh disguise for an old abuse.
Cut-out lie for the friends we choose.

All these pressures, all these puppeteers, I look like a fool.
To make some body act this way, I've become your tool.
Looking mighty sharp,
Dressed up like a thief.
My heart is on your sleeve.

It ain't true. It ain't true. Just who's eyes are we looking through?
A new suit. A new suit. Fresh disguise for an old excuse.
Cut-out lie for the friends we'll lose.
