I said it wouldn't matter
I said I wouldn't care
You with everyone else
Always remaining without me

Then you opened your mouth
Things were said
Illusions were made
You made loose speech and thought

I see you prance on their hearts
Intentions blind to the pain you cause
Recycling your charms for all of them
I watched your careless game

I am still free of you
I am burdened with you
Another man I cannot trust
Another lie that I saw as a truth

While I thank you for opening a door
For showing me to open up
I loathe you for showing me I was right
That while I can be open I can never trust

In a world where
All I ever do is feel
All I ever do is listen

Will I know a world where
I am sometimes felt
I am sometimes heard
