She had no natural way of living
Instead she lived by the method
Someone else’s words she read
But that life can only be silhouetted

She became an actor and a director
We all had to play our part
She placed all the words into our mouth
But what she thought to be real was not art

You try not to let me think
But still I form circles around you
You only want me to listen
All I will do is walk
And I one day I did
I wonder if you heard it?

There's no method
There's no method that works on me

Every original thought I had was dark
Yes that is what you said, something, not me
It was somehow as if only you knew the light
But I only see shadows inside your head
And a broken hand holding tight to what it won’t let me be

I don’t want to feel ***** and full of sin
But she could only tell me I had lost my way
How can you love someone when you are judged
By someone who only knows the script she wrote for the play?

You try not to let me think
But I’ve passed the place we once thought of
You only want me to listen
All I did today was talk
I had to talk about it
I wonder if you heard it

There's no method
There's no method that works on me
