LYRIC FOR SALE

By Sean Hanley

[VERSE 1]

3 AM motel, neon buzzing low
Bottle full of nothing, TV on snow
I sold my halo for a handful of dust
Faith in the gutter, love in the rust
Then you kicked down the door of my blacked out mind
Barefoot angel with a bottle of wine

[CHORUS 1]

You see through me
Past the smoke, past the cheap tattoos
Past the man that I pretend to be
You see through me
When I'm blind to everything that's true
You cut me clean and set me free

[VERSE 2]

Red light fever, sweat on your skin
You say babe, you gotta lose to win
Your hands on my chest like you own my sins
Saying let me in where the hurt begins
I was deaf, I was dumb, I was dead inside
You put the pulse back in my pride

[CHORUS 2]

You see through me
Past the smoke, past the cheap tattoos
Past the man that I pretend to be
You see through me
When I'm blind to everything that's true
You cut me clean and set me free

[BRIDGE]

I was six feet deep in my own damn head
Living on the words I never said
One look from you, and the dark got bright
One kiss from you, and the wrong felt right
Hey! Hey! You see through me!

[FINAL CHORUS]

You see through me
No more shadows, no more alibis
You ripped the blindfold off my life
You see through me
And for the first time in a long time
I can see
