1
You shake my senses and raise my alarm then drift away
You can't keep up with whoever you think you are any other day
You're weightless and drifting over the sea
Black interference invading the screen
On a red line trajectory
And you change my mind again
Because what you see is never what you get
But I'll take my chances, yeah
When you come back around here again
And I know things now that I didn't know then
Well I'll second guess it
There's things that you believe about yourself that don't add up
This version of you, more like somebody else, but not enough
And now you're cutting a deal in your head
Conscience is crystal clear once again
And you lock up the skeletons
And I change my mind again
Because what you see is never what you get
But I'll take my chances, yeah
And you come back around here again
And you say that you know things you didn't know then
Well I'll second guess it
Nobody new, just passing through
And I change my mind again
Because what you see is never what you get
But I'll take my chances, yeah
And you come back around here again
And I know things now that I didn't know then
Well I'll second, second guess it
I'll second guess it
You can't keep up with whoever you think you are any other day
You're weightless and drifting over the sea
Black interference invading the screen
On a red line trajectory
And you change my mind again
Because what you see is never what you get
But I'll take my chances, yeah
When you come back around here again
And I know things now that I didn't know then
Well I'll second guess it
There's things that you believe about yourself that don't add up
This version of you, more like somebody else, but not enough
And now you're cutting a deal in your head
Conscience is crystal clear once again
And you lock up the skeletons
And I change my mind again
Because what you see is never what you get
But I'll take my chances, yeah
And you come back around here again
And you say that you know things you didn't know then
Well I'll second guess it
Nobody new, just passing through
And I change my mind again
Because what you see is never what you get
But I'll take my chances, yeah
And you come back around here again
And I know things now that I didn't know then
Well I'll second, second guess it
I'll second guess it

It's about someone who can't be trusted, someone who hurt the speaker in the past and is now coming back and insisting she has changed. The speaker knows better, realizing that she is lying to herself as well as him, putting on another personality to avoid dealing with the things she's done.
The chorus suggests that the speaker may be "taking his chances" on a friendship/relationship with this person again, but he thinks that since now he knows she is inconsistent and two-faced, he'll be able to question her ("second guess it") and will avoid getting hurt.
