In my arms you lie
You're sleeping and you're still
I'm wide awake because I can't take it
And this is how I feel
Set my mind at ease
I'm worried and upset
My front door isn't open anymore
I'll be living with regret

So listen up
And just let music play
And if you listen hard enough
You could hear my say

This is the sound
Of desperation
This is the sound
Of me wearing thin

This is the sound
Of desperation (desperation)
This is the sound
Of me wearing thin

You heard it all before
Now you'll hear it all again
I never said I would rather be dead
But I thought about the end (thought about the end)
Soon as it's starting over and over
The night keeps blending in
The only way I can get through the day
Is try to make a mence

So listen up
And just let music play
And if you listen hard enough
You could hear my say

This is the sound
Of desperation
This is the sound
Of me wearing thin

This is the sound
Of desperation (desperation)
This is the sound
Of me wearing thin

(This the sound)

So listen up
And just let music play
And if you listen hard enough
You could hear my say

This is the sound
Of desperation
This is the sound
Of me wearing thin
