What I See

Dirty Projectors · Rise Above [2007]

I want to live

I wish I was dead

I've got to close my eyes

I want to live

I wish I was dead



This feeling

Haunts me

Behind these eyes the shell seems so empty

Does anything live inside?



I want to live

I wish I was dead

I've got to close my eyes

I want to live



I wish I was dead



Life's cold

And it reaches inside

I reach to feel and to live

A desperate wish begins

And from the start

I can see the end



I want to live

I wish I was dead

I've got to close my eyes

I want to live

I wish I was dead
