Behind
Stereotypical Working Class Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Things will never change
You will learn to...
All this time that we've been so wrong
You can see this face
'Can you see through now?
Take my hand and show me what you feel
'Cause I'm sure that we just can feel the same
And all my own sky is just behind your eyes
So you cry and this is your song
If things never change
Why should I do now?
But my sky has just never gone
Still behind your eyes
'Cause I see through
Take my hand and show me what you feel
'Cause I'm sure that we just can feel the same
'Cause I'm scared to show you what is deep inside
And all my own sky is just behind your eyes
Pain
I feel this pain
I feel this pain
With or without you now...
I just try
To keep you by my side
There's no lie
'Cause I am so cold when I see you down
All that I found
Here in my mind
You are my light
Don't you leave me behind
This pain I feel inside me.

The singer is asking the listener to look past their exterior and see what is hiding inside. The line "you can see this face, can you see through now?" implies that there is more to the singer than what can be seen on the surface.

Please do not abandon me
