As It Is
As It Is
As It Is
As It Is
As It Is
As It Is
As It Is
As It Is
As It Is
As It Is
As It Is
As It Is
I spill word after word
Like blood down my shirt
Tarnished and stained
Forever
But you, you only heard
The words not the hurt
The absence of pain
It don't mean a thing
[Chorus]
Nobody's listening
(Nobody's listening)
Straining our lungs to be heard
Nobody's listening
(Nobody's listening)
Losing our way in these words
I taste every mistake
Each morning I wake
A breath-taking blur
Of colour
But I, I'm crystal clear
In all you hold dear
Locked in your chest
It means that I'm
Desperate for the permanence
To wash away indifference
Is there not some equivalent
To pacify the pain?
Crying in unwelcome years
Swallowed in to perfect fears
What's the use of firing flares
If they don't mean a thing?
[Chorus]
Nobody's listening
(Nobody's listening)
Straining our lungs to be heard
Nobody's listening
(Nobody's listening)
Losing our way in these words
Tell me am I awake?
Or am I asleep?
Tell me is this the end?
Or is this just another dream?
Cos how can you- how can you tell?
When you can't feel
What can't be seen
But oh my god, oh my god is it real
No I don't hate you to say this
And no I don't want you to feel this
And I only have so much spark to offer in all this darkness
And I screamed for you
I screamed for you until I lost my voice
Show me, show me, show me show me
[Chorus]
Nobody's listening
(Nobody's listening)
Straining our lungs to be heard
Nobody's listening
(Nobody's listening)
Losing our way in these words
Nobody's listening
(Nobody's listening)
Straining our lungs to be heard
Nobody's listening
(Nobody's listening)
Losing our way in these words
Nobody's listening
(Nobody's listening)
Straining our lungs to be heard
