I CAN SING SO MANY LINES OF REDEMPTION
BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER
I CAN PLEAD FOR FORGIVENESS
BUT IT ALL SEEMS SO SHALLOW NOW
IT'S JUST THE MOVEMENT OF AIR
ACROSS VOCAL CORDS
THAT YOU DEMAND ARE SO PERFECT AND IN TUNE
AND EVERY SINGER ON MY RADIO IS DOING THE SAME
DEMANDING THAT I LISTEN TO THEM
AS THEY SCREAM THEIR DEMONS AWAY
BUT I CAN'T HELP BUT NOTICE
THAT IT'S ALL SO PITCH-PERFECT AND AUTO-TUNED
THERE'S ONE THING THAT I'VE LEARNED
IS THAT AS FAR AS YOU'RE CONCERNED
THESE SONGS FROM THE HEART
WILL NEVER BE GIVEN A CHANCE
THESE WORDS THAT I SING
TO ME MEAN EVERYTHING
BUT ALL IT IS TO YOU
IS JUST SOMETHING THAT I DO
SO SHOULD I SANITISE MY SOUL
AND SELL OUT MY EMOTIONS?
SHOULD I JUST SCREAM FROM THE HEART
WHILE GOING THROUGH THE SAME OLD MOTIONS?
OR DOES IT REALLY MATTER
DOES ANYONE ACTUALLY LISTEN ANYWAY?
THERE'S ONE THING THAT I'VE LEARNED
IS THAT AS FAR AS YOU'RE CONCERNED
THESE SONGS FROM THE HEART
WILL NEVER BE GIVEN A CHANCE
THESE WORDS THAT I SING
TO ME MEAN EVERYTHING
BUT ALL IT IS TO YOU
IS JUST SOMETHING THAT I DO
IT'S JUST SOMETHING THAT I DO
