Noises
The sounds that pound inside my head
Blocking out all the things you've said
Too much to hear, too much to take
Makes me want to drive a wooden stake
Into my eyes and into my ears
So I'd no need longer see or hear
The problems and details of everyone's life
The screaming child, the cheating wife
Leave me out of this circle of "friends"
It's the same old story over again
Whether you embellish it or change it, it's all a sham
Quite frankly, I don't give a damn
I don't care, it's not funny, nor cute, nor fun
Because when the day's all finished and done
The only ones hurt are the ones in the stories
So I don't care, it's rude and boring
So pardon me for ignoring
But I'll take the noises anyday
Because I can't stand the way
You lie and bend the truth
To how you want the story to be
So leave me alone, can't you see?
I'm not listening because I don't wanna be
The sounds that pound inside my head
Blocking out all the things you've said
Too much to hear, too much to take
Makes me want to drive a wooden stake
Into my eyes and into my ears
So I'd no need longer see or hear
The problems and details of everyone's life
The screaming child, the cheating wife
Leave me out of this circle of "friends"
It's the same old story over again
Whether you embellish it or change it, it's all a sham
Quite frankly, I don't give a damn
I don't care, it's not funny, nor cute, nor fun
Because when the day's all finished and done
The only ones hurt are the ones in the stories
So I don't care, it's rude and boring
So pardon me for ignoring
But I'll take the noises anyday
Because I can't stand the way
You lie and bend the truth
To how you want the story to be
So leave me alone, can't you see?
I'm not listening because I don't wanna be
