Threw you the obvious
And you flew with it on your back
A name in your recollection
Down among a million same

Difficult not to feel a little bit
Disappointed and passed over
When I look right through
To see you naked but oblivious
And you don't see me

But I threw you the obvious
Just to see if there's more behind
The eyes of a fallen angel
Eyes of a tragedy

Here I am expecting
Just a little bit too much from the wounded
but I see, see through it all
See through, see you

'Cause I threw you the obvious
to see what occurs behind
the Eyes of a fallen angel
Eyes of a tragedy

Oh well, oh well
Apparently nothing
Apparently nothing at all

You don't, you don't, you don't see me
You don't, you don't, you don't see me
You don't, you don't, you don't see me
You don't, you don't, you don't see me
You don't see me
You don't, you don't
You don't see me at all

    What a beautiful song. I seem to think it means what most do. I think it's about wanting a person and that person being so caught up with what's going on with them they just don't notice. If you look closely, it seems a bit insulting, too. I mean, "Here I am expecting just a little bit too much from the wounded"... If someone said that to you, it'd be insulting but powerful, right? And then there's the "To See what occurs behind the Eyes of a fallen angel, Eyes of a tragedy. Oh well. Oh well Apparently nothing. Apparently nothing at all" Now if you see it like I do, he's saying he was trying to see what she was thinking and what was really in her mind and he says that there was NOTHING which is him basically saying she's slow! lol

    But really, no song has on meaning and one alone. The writer writes it about something or to mean something, but it really only matters what it means to you, right? I mean, come on! We're talking about MJK here anyway! No one will ever understand what that man is thinking. He's a true genius (and if you disagree on that, I advise you to 'open your third eye' and then open your mind because if anything, that's not a strong enough word for him)
