You sit back, you shake your head
“Just don't lie”
So I don't, I keep my mouth shut
(Keep my mouth shut)
Do you see the way
I can't meet your eyes today
Not that it makes a difference
(but) surely you won't push the point
I keep myself from my best
If the troubles on my shoulders
Could be worth their weight in gold
I'd still die with my problems
A frail mind, but rich and old
It's the ringing in my ears at night
It's the tightness in my chest
The pressure in my head constricts
This frail mind
You're not there, don't shake your head
“I won't lie”
So I don't, I keep my mouth shut
And I swear I'm not coming back, Goodbye
Just try to trust me, it's easy
You're all shaken up
You try to restrain me
I can't open up to you… I try
Burn, this place will burn
So cover your eyes tonight
Can't meet your eyes today
Not that it makes a difference
But surely you won't push the point
I have to be anything, anywhere but here
Far away from these blue walls
And my distinct lack of clarity
