I'm not in your house, But not in your head, You're not even listening. It's so hard to know When you're not scared. Please don't help me, Please don't hate me. Stop putting me down, Coz I won't ever understand. I see it in your eyes I see it in your mind. I'm trying not to speak, Coz you can't hear my voice, Nothing seems familiar here. On the other side Of this town. Please don't help me, Please don't help me. Stop putting me down, Coz I won't ever understand. I see it in your eyes, I see it in your mind. Hold on.. Hold on.. If I see this all again, I'll try to take my time, I wonder how fast you could try. All this time I thought you knew All this time I thought you knew..
