I'm Not There

I feel your eyes on me Hear your voices Speaking my name Doubt sinks in Those daggers dig so deep man So deep, I can't explain What happened to that thick skin? That kept my sanity in Now I'm just wasting away Bright eyes fading fast I am always at my ends Always at my ends So when did I Make the time To dig a ditch so big That oceans surround me? That's how far I feel From reality You might look at me and think He's just not there He's just not there He's just not there He's just not there He's just not there I stare at myself Staring at you And I just don't care Because I'm not there No I'm miles away An ocean away For all of those lost inside You know the true power of your mind That the nightmare is when you're awake And sleep is the only escape The world is cold And every crowded street you are alone Blinded by eyes and judging thoughts Silenced by other's words The world is cold And every crowded street you are alone While others fight for attention And fight for the centre stage We slip back We fade away While others fight for attention And fight for the centre stage We slip back We fade away And so we fight And we win
