you are subtle as a window pane
  standing in my view
  but I will wait for it to rain
  so that I can see you
  you call me up at night
  when there's no light passing through
  and you think that I don't understand
  but I do
    we don't say everything that we could
  so that we can say later
  oh, you misunderstood
  I hold my cards up
  close to my chest
  I say what I have to
  and I hold back the rest
    'cause someone you don't know
  is someone you don't know
  get a firm grip, girl
  before you let go
  for every hand extended
  another lies in wait
  keep your eye on that one
  anticipate
    dress down get out there
  pick a fight with the police
  we will get it all on film
  for the new release
  seems like everyone's an actor
  or they're an actor's best friend
  I wonder what was wrong to begin with
  that they should all have to pretend
  we lost sight of everything
  when we have to keep checking our backs
  I think we should all just smile
  come clean
  and relax
    if there's anything I've learned
  all these years on my own
  it's how to find my own way there
  and how to find my own way back home
