I pretend to walk
I pretend to breathe
I know you understand
You always did
You prefer to talk
(And) I pretend to listen
Three and counting
I'm still waiting
I just want to fly
The morning sun is shattered
The smile is gone
Frozen liquid carving stone
It's time to close our eyes
As we pretend to care
I keep still
Accrete the silence you don't fill
I'm so glad that you can't read my mind
We spend a little time
Exchanging words and maybe
What you'd call emotion
But I'm so glad that you can't read my mind
I never meant to hurt
Still I'm spinning like a
Roundabout in motion
(Deceptive detachment ... from this world)
An echo from afar
The signal is too weak
I know you understand
You always did
You pretend to bide
So I pretend to smile
Three and counting
I'm still waiting
I just want to fly
The medium is shaking
Your voice is low
Melting shadows burning snow
It's time to close our eyes
Forget what we were told
I keep still
Embrace the silence you don't fill
I'm so glad that you can't read my mind
We spend a little time
Exchanging words and maybe
What you'd call emotion
But I'm so glad that you can't read my mind
I never meant to hurt
Still I'm spinning like a
Roundabout in motion
(Deceptive detachment ... from this world)
The more you want to feel free
The deeper your roots need to be
