Tell me what I've gotta do There's no getting through to you The lights are on but nobody's home (nobody's home) You say I can't understand But you're not giving me a chance When you leave me, where do you go? (Where do you go?) All the walls that you keep building All this time that I spent chasing All the ways that I keep losing you The truth is, you turn into someone else You keep running like the sky is falling I can whisper, I can yell But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know I'm just talking to myself Talking to myself Talking to myself But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know I'm just talking to myself I admit I made mistakes But yours might cost you everything Can't you hear me calling you home? All the walls that you keep building All this time that I spent chasing All the ways that I keep losing you The truth is, you turn into someone else You keep running like the sky is falling I can whisper, I can yell But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know I'm just talking to myself Talking to myself Talking to myself But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know I'm just talking to myself All the walls that you keep building All this time that I spent chasing All the ways that I keep losing you The truth is, you turn into someone else You keep running like the sky is falling I can whisper, I can yell But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know I'm just talking to myself Talking to myself Talking to myself But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know I'm talking to myself
