Lyrics Oingo Boingo – Can’t See (Useless)

Text:

We were both cast forth from the same pale hand
And we both moved freely in the shadow lands
And we both were sculpted by the same cold wind
And we both had armor that was made from tin

And I tried to find you, but it’s useless
And I tried to speak, but it was useless
And I felt so bad and I didn’t know why
And it didn’t get better as time went by
I was there for you, but you turned away

And I tried to find you, but it’s useless
And I tried to speak, but it was useless
And I tried to find you, but it’s useless

And you’re so close, but I can’t see you
And you’re right there, but I can’t see you
And I felt so dumb and I didn’t know what to do
You were right there and I can’t see you
And I realize that it’s useless
And I want to fight, but it’s useless
And I know you’re there, but it’s useless
And you’re everywhere, but it’s useless

And I tried to say it, but my tongue got tied
And I tried to say it, but I was numb inside
And I can’t see you anymore
And my peace of mind has gone through the door
And I realize that it’s useless
And I thought I was right, but it was useless
And I know you’re there, but it’s useless
And you’re everywhere, but it’s useless

And I can’t see now in front of my nose
And I know you’re there and I know you’re close

And you’re fading away—now you disappear
And I try to focus, but I can’t see clear
And I don’t know why I feel this way
And I can’t control myself anyway
And I don’t know why I feel this way
And I can’t control myself anyway

And I feel so bad, but it’s useless
And I feel so bad, but it’s useless
And I feel so bad, but it’s useless
And I can’t see… now, in front of my face.
