I never tried to listen
Those games are my decisions.
The dark cloak on my shoulder
This fear is taking over
Just when you see
I cannot be
With the game that's meant to end
When you're trying to go on
But I will not play along
And these pages bend and fold
And you think we're getting told
That these days aren't mean to hold
I never tried to listen
Those games are my decisions
The dark cloak on my shoulder
This fear is taking over
Just what you know
I wont let go
With the days inside my head
When I' m trying to control
Everything now that I own
With the bullet coming fast
And your stepping on the gas
And this novocain is dumb
I never tried to listen
Those games are my decisions
The dark cloak on my shoulder
This fear is taking over
