I went back to my mother, I said, I'm crazy, ma, help me
She said, I know how it feels, son, 'cause it runs in the family

The cracks between the paving stones look like rivers of flowing veins
Strange people who know me peeping from behind every window pane
The girl I used to love lives in this yellow house
Yesterday she passed me by, she doesn't want to know me now

[repeat chorus]

   Can you see the real me? Can you, can you?

Can you see the real me? Can ya, oh, yeah.

I ended up with the preacher, full of lies and hate
I seemed to scare him a little, so he showed me to the golden gate
