Your face is burned inside my brain I lost my way Your taste of stale flows through my veins The cost of hate Cause you'll never understand me You want me to stay You're see-see-see-calling but I can't hear you I'm not listening anymore You're subject to falling but I can't save you I don't see you anymore The race of slowing down the pain, I found a way The pace of speaking so mundane, the sound of gain But you'll never make me happy So I've extinguished the flame You're see-see-see-calling, but I can't hear you I'm not listening anymore You're subject to falling, but I can't save you I don't see you anymore And what you want me to say I'll never say You're playing the game that I'll never play So what do you want from me? Now I've extinguished the flame Your see-see-see-calling but I can't hear you I'm not listening anymore You're subject to falling but I can't save you I don't see you anymore You're see-see-see-calling but I can't hear you, I'm not listening anymore You're f-f-f-falling, but I can't save you I don't see you anymore
