lyrics

How do I lay down the vibe
I'm no different from you?
Feels to me that we don't jive
No matter what I do

Something that I did
Is it what I say
Is it how I chose
To go about my day?

Everything's okay
Nothing black or white
Is it just the way I look tonight?

Seems to me there's something wrong
The way we look around
I'm inside here looking out
But you're out looking down

How do I begin
To be seen again?
If I'm just a symptom of the world
You're living in

Am I another day runnin' out of light?
Or is it just the way I look tonight?

Why can't we ever be
Who we really are?
Too much time to get in line
And never get too far

How do lay down the vibe
I'm no different from you?
Sometimes there is nothing right
No matter what I do

Are you just afraid?
Not knowing what to say?
Hoping you could never lose and yet you found the way

Are you seeing through
The face I turn to you?
Or is it just the way I look
The way I look tonight?
