Does it really count If the words that form feel foreign in my mouth? Sleep away the day And leave me to sink in my bedroom shade Does it really count If I close my eyes and think of a way out? Would you really care If I stayed at home instead of being here? Instrumental Let me get out of this I can't say what I have to admit The ridges of your ceiling burned in my eyes The panic lingers though a year's gone by I guess the sun just got too close I felt the ground; I felt the impact The clarity that I now know It beats in my chest and I can't fake that I'm done with unheard words The static on the phone sounds so jarring 'Gainst the ringing of being alone Does anybody change or is it really just A matter of what's forgiven and forgot? So I'll just bite my lip and keep it to myself And outlook all the judgment that was felt You know it's so damn hard for me to just ignore The fact that silence isn't mine anymore Instrumental I'll scream out my words If you pay attention I'll scream out my words If you just listen I guess the sun just got too close I felt the ground; I felt the impact The clarity that I now know It beats in my chest and I can't fake that I'm done with unheard words The static on the phone sounds so jarring 'Gainst the ringing of being alone Does anybody change or is it really just A matter of what's forgiven and forgot? So I'll just bite my lip and keep it to myself And outlook all the judgment that was felt You know it's so damn hard for me to just ignore The fact that silence isn't mine anymore Instrumental He said, she said... who's to tell? He said, she said... who's to tell? Who's to tell?
