Comatose |
A face with no emotion |
Lost in the television’s glow |
He’s slipping into darkness |
Not far from comatose |
With a bottle in his left hand |
A cigarette in his right |
He’s drowning out the echo |
Of voices in the night |
Through the conversation |
The old me drifts away |
Hiding from the moment |
I long for yesterday |
I hear your voice so distant |
Calling out my name |
If only I could answer |
If we were still the same… |
Oh, but we’ve changed |
So what am I supposed to do |
And what am I to say? |
I feel a bit more paralyzed |
With every word you say |
And what about the change you want |
How can I succumb? |
When everything you want to do |
Leaves me awfully numb |
Awfully numb |
Stay for a moment |
Stay for while |
Join in on this masquerade |
Filled with regret and denial |
We are kindred spirits |
Though parallel lines |
Running off in different directions |
Never to entwine |
No way to rewind |
We can’t turn back time |
So we avoid the subject |
Our communication strained |
Sheltered in the small talk |
We wait for the other to change |
But the song remains the same… |
So what am I supposed to do |
And what am I to say? |
I feel a bit more paralyzed |
With every word you say |
And what about the change you want |
How can I succumb |
When everything you want to do |
Leaves me awfully numb |
Awfully numb |
A face with no emotion |
Lost in the television’s glow |
He’s slipping into darkness |
Not far from comatose |
