The Surface Of Me Lyrics

Oh yeah!
A study of history Reveals an unflagging appeal to mystery You talk about abstraction at the top of the list But you might as well get pissed 'Cause in me the essence does not exist, no
You're so shallow How can your romance hope to be the veil of An ersatz human nature that can pacify But never slept well When there's the pretension of living a lie
Take me as I am, judge me for my crimes I can say I'll behave freely all the time You can predict what I'll say It's in my DNA And soon I'll be a catalog number anyway
So say a little prayer Convince yourself that someone cares All I am is what you see There is nothing more than the surface of me There is nothing more than the surface of me
Oh yeah
Apologies to Skinner But I do believe I feel like I'm a winner Having just discovered a long-solved modal secret Of why I always feel So goddamn downtrodden and desperate
Take me as I am, judge me for my crimes I can say I'll behave freely all the time You can predict what I'll say It's in my DNA And soon I'll be a catalog number anyway
So say a little prayer Convince yourself that someone cares All I am is what you see There is nothing more than the surface of me There is nothing more than the surface of me
Take me as I am, judge me for my crimes I can say I'll behave freely all the time You can predict what I'll say It's in my DNA And soon I'll be a catalog number anyway
So say a little prayer Convince yourself that someone cares All I am is what you see There is nothing more than the surface of me There is nothing more than the surface of me
What you see is the surface of me
