3 Libras

A Perfect Circle · aMOTION [2004]

Threw you the obvious

And you flew with it on your back

A name

In your recollection

Down among a million same



Difficult not to feel a little bit

Disappointed and passed over

When I've looked right through

See you naked but oblivious

And you don't

See

Me



But I threw you the obvious

Just to see if there's more behind the

Eyes of a fallen angel

Eyes of a tragedy

Here I am expecting just a little bit

Too much from the wounded

But I see, see through it all

See through

See you

Cause I threw you the obvious

To see what occurs behind the

Eyes of a fallen angel

Eyes of a tragedy



Oh well

Oh well

Apparently nothing

Apparently nothing at all



You don't

You don't

You don't see me

You don't

You don't

You don't see me

You don't

You don't

You don't see me

You don't

You don't

You don't see me

You don't

see me!

You don't

You don't

You don't see me at all
