In my arms you lie You're sleeping and you're still I'm wide awake because I can't take it And this is how I feelSet my mind at ease I'm worried and upset Well, my front door isn't on anymore I'll be living with regret So listen up And just let the music play If you listen hard enough You can hear me say This is the sound of desperation This is the sound of me wearing thin This is the sound of desperation This is the sound of me wearing thin You've heard it all before Now, you'll hear it all again I never said, I would rather be dead But I thought about the end Soon as it's starting over and over The nights keep blending in The only way I can get through the day Is to try to make amends So listen up And just let the music play If you listen hard enough You can hear me say This is the sound of desperation This is the sound of me wearing thin This is the sound of desperation This is the sound of me wearing thin This is the sound So listen up And just let the music play If you listen hard enough You can hear me say This is the sound of desperation This is the sound of me wearing thin This is the sound of desperation This is the sound of me wearing thin This is the sound of desperation This is the sound of me wearing thin
