Lyrics:
A face with no emotionLost in the television's glowHe's slipping into darknessNot far from comatoseWith a bottle in his left handA cigarette in his rightHe's drowning out the echoOf voices in the nightThrough the conversationThe old me drifts awayHiding from the momentI long for yesterdayI hear your voice so distantCalling out my nameIf only I could answerIf we were still the same.Oh, but we've changedSo what am I supposed to doAnd what am I to say?I feel a bit more paralyzedWith every word you sayAnd what about the change you wantHow can I succumb?When everything you want to doLeaves me awfully numbAwfully numbStay for a momentStay for whileJoin in on this masqueradeFilled with regret and denialWe are kindred spirits,Though parallel linesRunning off in different directionsNever to entwineNo way to rewindWe can't turn back timeSo we avoid the subjectOur communication strainedSheltered in the small talkWe wait for the other to changeBut the song remains the same.So what am I supposed to doAnd what am I to say?I feel a bit more paralyzedWith every word you sayAnd what about the change you wantHow can I succumbWhen everything you want to doLeaves me awfully numbAwfully numbA face with no emotionLost in the television's glowHe's slipping into darknessNot far from comatose
