I turn on
my ipod
no going anywhere today
I’ve used up
all my time
and now im wasting away

so I turn on my ipod
I listen to my favorite song
I’ll block you out so I cant hear you
screaming in my ears
and I listen but I wont hear
the words I’ve come to fear
as I dread when you come near
with your mouth open
and your minds closed

I sit down
and tell a tale
of a day when life was all that it could ever be
well look at me
I am
not the
one to tell you that you’re wrong
but if
you think
you can tell me that im wrong
your right
I guess
I will sit there and pretend
that im not breaking into pieces
falling apart

so if you
just tell me
say you’re sorry even when I know you’re not
and if you
just look me
in the eye as much as that might hurt your ego

I will
pretend
that everything is just grand
and I wont
speak of
this night again

ill just turn my ipod on
listen to my favorite song
I will block you out
when you scream into my ears
I will cage inside
myself and all my fears

I turn on
my ipod
no going anywhere today
I’ve used up
my time
and now im wasting away
but at least I wont hear you
screaming
at least you wont hear me
screaming in my head
the things I would’ve said
if I only had the nerve to tell you so

let it go
I am screaming in my head
with the flow
and the words I would’ve said
they come rushing like the blood inside my veins
but at least I can tell you im insane
it would be better
that way

and ill just
turn on
my ipod
and listen to my favorite song
and I wont
hear you
screaming in my ears
tearing me apart
