I'm an angry young man with a gun in my hand Talking to you as if you'll understand The world doesn't get me, are you going to let me Do this? Because I might not live to regret it And I know, even though you don't want to know You're the only one who listens And I know, even though you don't want to know You're the only one who'll listen Take control Why don't you take control of me? Softly speak those words I want to hear Save my soul Let's grow old free of fear Whisper reassurance in my ear I know, even though you don't want to know You're the only one who'll listen I'm insecure I need to be reassured Can the world run right without me running riot? I'm losing grip Do you even notice it? If I shut up, will everyone be quiet?
