Lyrics
I'm LISTENING

You got used to not talking a long time ago
I got used to your silence even though
I would wish every night in the quietest part
You would whisper to me as I lay in the dark

I知 listening...
I知 listening...

And it became awkward under the sheets
As the distance between us became so deep
That I started to drown as I looked to your lips
To rescue me from this silent abyss

I知 listening...
I知 listening...
I知 listening...
But there痴 nothing at all

I値l take what I get and I won稚 complain,
But your leftovers are never the same
Cuz I知 standing in line and I知 always next
I知 right beside you but we don稚 connect
So I知 living in limbo, I知 stuck in this hell
Where I知 waiting for you to break the (silent) spell

I知 listening... for an answer
I知 listening... to the walls
I知 listening... for your love
But there痴 nothing at all
