Because I've always seen my life in other people, Don't worry, the irony makes me choke, That I can't just reach out and touch them. My hand slips through them like smoke. Because I study my life in other people, But it's getting harder to tell Whether it's memory or reflection I'm watching, Either way, it all feels like hell. Because I hold my life in my hands, But everything's just that bit numb. I can't feel if it hurts or I'm breathing, Either way, I think that I'm done.

Life In Other People
Because I've always seen my life in other people, Don't worry, the irony makes me choke, That I can't just reach out and touch them. My hand slips through them like smoke. Because I study my life in other people, But it's getting harder to tell Whether it's memory or reflection I'm watching, Either way, it all feels like hell. Because I hold my life in my hands, But everything's just that bit numb. I can't feel if it hurts or I'm breathing, Either way, I think that I'm done.
