Fake Eyes – Understated Lyrics

I'm drifting outside of myself
I'm grasping inside of this shell for words
An understatement or a cool remark
Did you remember that I'm here too?
I fashioned a "hello" from my subdued conniving shame

But I don't mind if you're wasting all your time
Because in your eyes, in your eyes

I'm infinitesimal and can't describe a phantasmal interest or alibi
It's in your eyes, in your eyes
That I'm interested in thoughts I can't describe
The nature of the listless alibi that's in your eyes, in your eyes

You're slipping away, I can tell
You're dizzy and desperate for help
You're worth the understatement, a new remark
You're mystified that it's no secret
But what disguise is worth ever keeping
When you're a fraction of a memory?

I don't mind
That you're wasting all your time
It's in your eyes, in your eyes

I'm infinitesimal and can't describe a phantasmal interest or alibi
It's in your eyes, in your eyes
I'm interested in thoughts I can't describe
The nature of the listless alibi that's in your eyes, in your eyes

But I don't mind, no, I don't mind
But I don't mind, no, I don't mind
In your eyes, your eyes
