So close yet so distant

Fading face embraces resistant

Words kept hidden

And shadows dark

Your forbidden heart is shallow

Your emotions are hallow

You haven't learned, it's time.

[CHORUS:]



Cause you ain't comin' back

It'll never be the same old song

The cards are stacked

And time's run out

And everything's a game.

So sing me your lullaby

'cause I need to know why

why I keep fallin'

Keep fallin'



[CHORUS]



You know you're shallow

Used to be at the top, now you've dropped

Lost all your common sense and now your brain's stopped

There's nothing left in your mind except yourself

You gave it all up - your home, your friends and yourself.

Now you're out on your own, you've lost your soul

Get a hold of yourself - know your role.



So close yet so distant

Fading face embraces resistant

Words kept hidden

And shadows dark

Your forbidden heart is shallow

Your emotions are hollow

You haven't learned, it's time



[CHORUS]



Ain't comin' back
