Peter Bjorn & John - (I Just Wanna) See Through lyrics

Well now I see they're screaming harder - and they're throwing things But I don't need to follow - I don't want to follow I'm trying to get hollow - trying to get hollow Is there something I can borrow - just until tomorrow Well now I see they're getting lamer to the point of lying down The beat is getting softer - the heat is getting colder The light is getting dim - the substance getting thinner But I'm still trying to grasp it - they give me meals to choke on And now you hold his hand And now he understands But I don't have to face it - I don't have to chase sh** 'cause I just wanna see through - I want to embrace you Get back where you belong at university Or try to do it our way - try to make it this way But I don't need to listen - I'll be home for Christmas I'll see you when it's raining - society is draining You'll be up and you'll be down in a matter of minutes I've tried run the distance Tried and get the high fence But I've never been a sportsman Got picked last when they picked teams I'm the worst kind of amateur The kind which never wins the war Though I had the best of teachers They called me the seeker And now you... And now you hold his hand And now he understands But I don't have to face it - I don't have to chase sh** 'Cause I just wanna see through - I want to embrace you I just wanna see through - I want to embrace you Oh oh oh! - I just wanna see through - I want to embrace you You...
