You look them in the eye  To show them you're brave  But no one but me knows  That you're just a slave  To this part in the play  You never mean what you say  You come on so strong  You run with the hunt  You don't show what's behind  You don't show what's in front  And you do it to show  Someone you don't know  Like a bird on a limb  Starin' down at its toes  No song it could sing  No its voice it just froze  And the fear that you keep  Is bottled up there inside  CHORUS  And I see  Right through you  Right on through  But I know you see  Right through me too  Yo put on a good show  You act so in control  But you're laughin' too loud  At a joke no one told  You're not what you appear  You're just a ghost in the mirror  Sometims what you say  Yeah, you do for effect  You wanna show someone power  You wanna get some respect  But most times you don't know  Nothin' about it at all  CHORUS  I'm chippin' the rock  But it's tark in the mine  Don't look away now  You drive me outa my mind  But I try to get sure  I try to endure  The things that I wanted  So much outa you  A feelin' to share  A love that was true  Or maybe I just made it up  CHORUS  ----------------------------------------
