This isn't bad, but it's not good I let the smoke roll off my breath Sometimes I think, don't think I should My eyes can see my life's a mess The clouds all rain But just on me I beg for mercy in my sleep Nobody's listening The buildings creak and gutters moan Why can't the world leave me in peace? I choke the fear down on my own I feel the poison in my knees Headlights shine But not on me Sidestepping traffic in the street Nobody's listening My nightmare's drowning all my dreams The mirror laughs and shakes its head I grit my teeth and rip the seams The damage turns my fingers red My image fades But dwells on me So I collapse in misery Nobody's listening
