Every eye in this room
Is looking at me
I put the count at two
Eyes looking at me
And as the stare comes back
From the far side
Of that cold piece of glass
It lights the ugly things
The hopeful things
The should have beens
What do you want me to be?
What you get is what you see
Every eye in this room
Is looking at me
Like a self conscious chimp in your zoo
And you're looking at me
In this false habitat
You stay behind
Your one-way piece of glass
You see in me your dreams
Your failings, fears
Your own dark things
What do you want me to be?
What you get is what you see
We'll never see everything
Unless we're willing to be seen
We won't be willing to be seen
Unless we're willing to live unsafely
So step inside the cage with me
I'll pull the bars back
So you can step inside with me
Every eye in this room
Is looking at you
Everyone in this room
Is waiting for you
What do you want me to be?
What you get is what you see
