That band’s songs sound to me
Like shrill laughter all around
That band’s songs are to me
Like the piercing clang of a railway crossing
Don’t push me forward
There’s a train coming
I close my eyes there’s a halo in the darkness
I cover my ears there’s a steady beating pulse within
Deep in my chest my heart makes my body sway
I don’t want to hear anything else
Nothing but the sounds I’m making
Looking for a place to belong in the dissonance
I was saved by a sad song
That band’s song managed to be someone’s cast
But I still feel like the (only) one making mistakes
I close my eyes there’s a halo in the darkness
I cover my ears there’s a steady beating pulse within
Deep in my chest my heart makes my body sway
I don’t want to hear anything else
Nothing but the sounds I’m making
I don’t need anything else
Don’t push me forward
Don’t touch my heart so frivolously
The departure bells rings
I’m the only passenger
The sound of clapping, sounds for me alone
Feet stomping until tracks are left behind
I opened my eyes as a loner
And accepted it, moving forward
Right now, deep inside, my heart tells me
I don’t want to hear anything else
Nothing but the sounds I’m making
