When the thoughts began to creep in
I shoulda pushed 'em out before the invasion
No invitation, took all my motivation to ignore
Each and every accusation
Stone cold sinner
Emotional killer
Run around in circles while my time grows thinner
Yeah, that's what they said when they tried me on the spot
Gave me a verdict, a perfect reason to keep me caught
Take me back to where I started
I could be something better,
I could be something more
Crossing paths with my own future
It's inevitable,
I can't fight this force majeur
It's not that I don't talk
It's just nobody's listening
It's not that I don't speak
You can't hear for the sound of the Earth spinning round
It's not that I don't talk
It's just nobody's listening
It's not that I don't speak
You can't hear for the sound of the Earth spinning round
And it drives me crazy
Blasphemous and hypocritical
Let my emotions loose of of their chains, I gave 'em free reign
Watched as the optimist became cynical
Looking back at me, I can't help but see
Indecent exposure to forces beyond my control
Has forever changed me, irreversibly, for eternity
I'll live with mistakes I never made
Can't hear for the voice in my head, no
Can't sleep 'til I put it to rest
There's never a moment's peace from the sound
Motions will pass and momentum will carry me
A guided tour of the person I coulda been
Take me back to the fork in the road 'cause if I'd known
I woulda turned away, I woulda turned back
Take me back to where I started
Take me back to where I began
I could be something better, I could be something more
Crossing paths with my own future
Crossing swords with another me
It's inevitable, I can't fight this force
It's not that I don't talk
It's just nobody's listening
It's not that I don't speak
You can't hear for the sound of the Earth spinning round
And it drives me crazy
