Rollins Band was an American rock band formed in Van Nuys, California. The band was active from 1987 to 2006 and was led by former Black Flag vocalist Henry Rollins. They are best known for the songs “Low Self Opinion” and “Liar”, which both earned heavy airplay on MTV in the early-mid 1990s.

I looked deep into your eyes Saw men lying broken Shattered at the bottom of your well You took their simple affection Turned it into bad infection Sent them packing straight to hell I see what sweats you Reality threatens you You can’t hide yourself from me When you see the one that sees through you, it’s me

Canine men Fighting, lying, trying to be the one That gets to feel your touch I see them lined up like broken heroes Spitting out pieces of their broken luck I guess I’ve got good sense and hindsight Because to me it never meant that much When you see the one that laughs at you, it’s me

Wasted time spent thinking about you You know I’ve come to hate myself Smashing my hands against the wall Trying to forget the foolish way I felt You’re so kind when it serves you well Your cruelty

No more trying No more lying No more messing around with my mind I’m going, I’m gone

Because now I see you You must think I’m blind When you need those arms around you You won’t find my arms around you

When you see the one that sees through you When you see the one that laughs at you, it’s me
