threw you the obvious and you flew
with it on your back, a name in your recollection,
thrown down among a million same.
difficult not to feel a little bit disappointed
and passed over
when i've looked right through
to see you naked and 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,
the eyes of a tragedy.
here i am expecting just a little bit
too much from the wounded.
but i see through it all
and see you.
so i threw you the obvious
to see what occurs behind the eyes of a fallen angel,
eyes of a tragedy.
oh well. apparently nothing.
you don't see me.
you don't see me at all.

-agrees with goaway- They're amazing when they perform live. I can't wait to see them next time they come around. This song is probably second only to the Hollow on this album. It fits my life well..

This is, by far, the best song that I have ever listened to. The words are so beautiful, and the music and the way it is sung. Its juist so hard to put into words the way this song makes someone feel.

Amazing song. The lyrics apply to my life so much. Also one of the best songs by APC in my opinion.

Musically AND lyricically perfect song. Needless to say, Maynard and Billy (thank you Paz, for the violin) are brilliant. A must need song to hear.

You're all fucking eejits. How can this song relate to ANY of you? It's about 3 girls that treated Maynard like shit when he was younger and they all happened to be Libras. Childhood torment makes good love music, eh?

Nobody said it was "love music"...They said they love the song.
I agree also that this song kicks ass.

Perhaps this song could relate to people who look beyond it being three girls and their signs. I find it to relate to me because it says he made it obvious that he cared for them and they didn't care. thats a common problem people can relate to. I do.

This song is simply amazing. Enough said. Fuck relation to the song, fuck trying to see what it means; why can't people just sit the fuck down and let it move them? Isn't that what the music is made for?

Lithium1983. go fuck yourself. the beauty of music is that it can reach and touch people on so many levels. you obviously do not grasp that concept. so let the kids interpret it the way they want eh? and stop acting so fucking self riteous.

what a beautiful song - i swear as time goes on Maynard gets more powerful - or is it Carl Caliente? he call himself Chicken George for all I care - the man is incredible. I love the dynamics that APC have - in some ways even more powerful than Tool. There is something so liberating about introspection that Maynard hits on time after time. Beautiful tune.

This song is brilliant. I'd say more... But calling this song anything less than perfect is not doing it justice. In my humble opinion.

I have always overlooked this song because I once thought Judith was clearly the best song on the album, but after seeing the video on Amotion I have changed my mind and now I can't stop listening to this song. Its so great. Maynard is a genius.

one of my favorite songs ever, its too incredible to describe. It shows me that Maynard is one of the best vocalists today as he can craft beautiful songs whether they´re antichrist or about love
