Story Behind The Song
My girlfriend at the time was all about trying to change me, or convince me to be the potential person she always saw in me...regardless whatever the reality was. This song was inspired by my frustration with that.

Lyrics
VERSE:
Fortune Teller says that she
can see the future as it will be
As things stand now...
As things stand now...
Fortune Teller says that she
can see the future as it will be
As things stand now...
CHORUS:
I don't care
what you think you see
it's all on me.
VERSE:
Pretty lady says that she
can see us living in perfect harmony
But does she bother to learn my needs
Cause I've done my part, as she'll agree
CHORUS:
I don't care
what you think you see
it's all on me.
SOLO SECTION
CHORUS:
I don't care
what you think you see
it's all on me.
VERSE:
Fortune Teller says that she
can see the future as it will be (as things stand now)
Mystic lady, lucid dreams
sees the future, in perfect harmony
CHORUS:
I don't care
what you think you see
it's all on me.
I don't care
what you think you see
I don't care
what you think you see
it's still on me.
END.
