See Through Me
Lyrics
They see me from the outside, looking in But they don’t know where I’ve been They see me lookin’ well on the outside Thinkin’ that I got it all lined up What they don’t know, can’t hurt ‘em But I know this ain’t working Want them to know me Cuz I know that they care for me and No one below me Where’s my money? Make it feel alright Gonna take me to the river and do whatever I like Have my back and I’ll have yours Gonna take us to the river, we left the shore Wade through the river, we left the shore Wade through the river, we left the shore Even if it means they can see through me Rollin’ up my life in tobacco and weed How long will I wait for peace today? How long ‘til I get paid? Even if it means they can see through me Rollin’ up my life in tobacco and weed How long will it take to eat today? How long ‘til I get paid? See me lookin’ fly down the street They don’t know that I’m so lonely Many months gone by, no checks arrived I can’t even eat I am just one person Sometimes I show when I am hurting You know me, you care for me You’re not below me Where’s my money? Make it feel alright Gonna take me to the river and do whatever I like Have my back and I’ll have yours Gonna take us to the river, we left the shore Wade through the river, we left the shore Wade through the river, we left the shore Even if it means they can see through me Rollin’ up my life in tobacco and weed How long will I wait for peace today? How long ‘til I get paid? Even if it means they can see through me Rollin’ up my life in tobacco and weed How long will it take to eat today? How long ‘til I get paid? Even if it means they can see through me Rollin’ up my life in tobacco and weed How long will I wait for peace today? How long ‘til I get paid? How long ‘til I get paid?
About This Song
Honest confession of hiding poverty and loneliness behind a put-together facade and asking how long until relief comes.
What is the song “See Through Me” by Chad Lewine about?
The deepest, darkest autobiographical song I've written thus far, (at least without metaphor.) This song was written during the only time in my life I was actualyl suicidal. It was only for a few days, but it was real.
