Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
Staring at Paper faces, Expressions like empty pages, Day after day Waiting for the lights to change now, Reaching for a cloud to come down, And cover me Can't shut you out Can't get you out Can't take you down Can't watch you drown Waiting for the world to change, Dissolution takes a bit off, And swallows me Looking for a way to get out, Wishing that the rush would come down And smother me Can't shut you out Can't get you out Can't take you down Can't watch you drown If you can learn to be yourself, Then that's okay If you can find a reason now, Don't drift away Walking down streets to nowhere, Stepping on feet with no cares, Losing my self Can't shut you out Can't get you out Can't take you down Can't watch you drown Can't shut you out Can't get you out Can't take you down Can't watch you drown
