I pretend to walk
 I pretend to breathe
 I know you understand
 You always did
 You prefer to talk
 (And) I pretend to listen
 Three and counting
 I'm still waiting
 I just want to fly
 The morning sun is shattered
 The smile is gone
 Frozen liquid carving stone
 It's time to close our eyes
 As we pretend to care
 I keep still
 Accrete the silence you don't fill
 I'm so glad that you can't read my mind
 We spend a little time
 Exchanging words and maybe
 What you'd call emotion
 But I'm so glad that you can't read my mind
 I never meant to hurt
 Still I'm spinning like a
 Roundabout in motion
 (Deceptive detachment ... from this world)
 An echo from afar
 The signal is too weak
 I know you understand
 You always did
 You pretend to bide
 So I pretend to smile
 Three and counting
 I'm still waiting
 I just want to fly
 The medium is shaking
 Your voice is low
 Melting shadows burning snow
 It's time to close our eyes
 Forget what we were told
 I keep still
 Embrace the silence you don't fill
 I'm so glad that you can't read my mind
 We spend a little time
 Exchanging words and maybe
 What you'd call emotion
 But I'm so glad that you can't read my mind
 I never meant to hurt
 Still I'm spinning like a
 Roundabout in motion
 (Deceptive detachment ... from this world)
 The more you want to feel free
 The deeper your roots need to be
