You ask me questions
but I saw through your intentions

I don't want to answer

I don't want to speak

Close my mouth
shut my ears
cover my eyes
or was that before the lies?

Shut my mouth
cover my ears
close my eyes

Distressed and overwhelmed
I'm not like this
but we're not like that
So distressed
more overwhelmed

I don't want to answer

Please don't speak

Close my mouth
shut my ears
cover my eyes
I wish I knew that before the lies

Shut my mouth
cover my ears
close my eyes

Am I supposed to stop thinking?
I can hear you breathing
the air is so still
but making a move invites just another ominous chill

Shut my mouth
cover my ears
close my eyes

You ask me questions
but I saw through your intentions

Speaking out of turn
though you beg
you're speaking out of turn
We can't make the world turn

Close my mouth
shut my ears
cover my eyes
I wish I knew that before the lies

Shut my mouth
cover my ears
close my eyes
