X-Ray Eyes

WRITTEN BY: OWEN TEMPLE & CAROLINE HALE

My persona of a loner
Don’t wear my heart out on my shirt
I learned a lesson, keep em guessin’
So I don’t wind up getting hurt

But around you when I found you
Saw you see through all the show
I saw you too and now I know you
Take my hand, cause there you go

Aiming them at me – your X-ray eyes
You see the true me, not my disguise
You see who I am, not just what I do
Drop the game, I’ll do the same for only you
X-ray eyes

It’s so boring just performing
Replaying everything I hear
Speaking other’s speeches
And reflecting like a mirror
You broke the glass, saw me at last
Pointed past all the illusion
Now I’m resting in your arms
Cause it’s the real me that you’re choosing

When you’re
Aiming them at me – your X-ray eyes
You see the true me, not my disguise
You see who I am, not just what I do
You drop the game, I’ll do the same for only you
X-ray eyes

Ending pretending
The waves are all unbending
Knowing how to see so clear
Now that you are near

You gave ’em to me – some X-ray eyes
Now I see it true, no need for lies
You see who I am, not just what I do
Drop the game, I’ll do the same for only you
X-ray eyes
X-ray eyes
