I pretend to walk

I pretend to breathe

I know you understand

You always did



You prefer to talk

And I pretend to listen

Three and counting

I'm still waiting



I just want to fly

The morning sun is shattered

The smile is gone

Frozen liquid carving stone



It's time to close our eyes

As we pretend to care

I keep still

Accrete the silence you don't fill



I'm so glad that you can't read my mind

We spend a little time

Exchanging words and maybe

What you'd call emotion



But I'm so glad that you can't read my mind

I never meant to hurt

Still I'm spinning like a

Roundabout in motion



Deceptive detachment from this world



An echo from afar

The signal is too weak

I know you understand

You always did



You pretend to bide

So I pretend to smile

Three and counting

I'm still waiting



I just want to fly

The medium is shaking

Your voice is low

Melting shadows burning snow



It's time to close our eyes

Forget what we were told

I keep still

Embrace the silence you don't fill



I'm so glad that you can't read my mind

We spend a little time

Exchanging words and maybe

What you'd call emotion



But I'm so glad that you can't read my mind

I never meant to hurt

Still I'm spinning like a

Roundabout in motion



Deceptive detachment from this world



The more you want to feel free

The deeper your roots need to be



I'm so glad that you can't read my mind

We spend a little time

Exchanging words and maybe

What you'd call emotion



But I'm so glad that you can't read my mind

I never meant to hurt

Still I'm spinning like a

Roundabout in motion



Deceptive detachment from this world
