I try real hard to smile My words are not so sure Got one eye on the time, one eye on the door I can't fake a thing and lyings not my style It's hard to hide away what I've been feeling for a while Long to feel the force of fresh people in my face I long to see the day when somebody takes my place My words feel so clear they get lost when you translate Instead of hearing I have to go you hear me hesitate Ch There's no soul There's no soul There's no soul inside these lines There's no soul Loving you by numbers Feelings by the book I don't think you understand i need a second look You try to real me in and have me under your control You can cage my body but you can't lock up my soul Ch Is it how we're raised or is it how we're born I try to take a different path but this one feels so worn Making changes making plans will only leave a stain And the marks you left upon me can't be washed up by the rain Ch I try real hard to smile My words are not sure sure Got one eye on the time, one eye on the door One eye on the time, one eye on the door One eye on the time, one eye on the door
