All I really needed was you by my side,
but I only get a front row seat to view my dream.
I scream for escape, and the silence is deafening.
Sulking in my sorrows just turns me numb.
But when the pain comes closer numbness is envied.
So I escape until my cheeks flushed deep red
but how long the escape will last, no one knows.
If only we hadn't stopped talking maybe you'd know
what's been on my mind. And you know
it'd be really nice to know what's in your heart.
Because I know what's best for you,
and that leads me back where I started.
For some reason you're led astray with your head in your hands;
I just can't watch you like that but I can't turn around now.
I put myself here with no way out, there's just no return.
Only a numbness calms my mind,
and the hope that you'll talk to me again
eases my worries until I can numb myself again.
