Lyrics
It took all I had
To break away
I'd be damned if I'd cry
Such a sorry cliché
I watched myself fade
And nearly disappear
You can keep talking
But I will never hear
`cause I'm not listening
I'm not listening
I'm not listening
To your lies anymore
What was I thinking
My reactions were slow
Took so long to catch on
I was the last one to know
I sat on the shore
and watched myself drown
I just broke the surface
And then I went down
But I'm not listening
I'm not listening
I'm not listening
I'm not listening
To your voice anymore
