And as you ponder me
endlessly
the distance and
the thoughts of me
and though I listen
patiently
You never heard before
And as you sit
and ask me why
As I am numb
And watch you cry
I am abstract
and wonder why
you didn't hear before
and ...
I am removed now
I learned how
and I am far away now
but just so you know... I said I was scared
I said I was scary
I said I was scarred
...nevermind,
you're not listening.
And now you're gone
and wonder why
you let someone like me slip by
you think you're such
a mistreated guy
but hey...
I tried to tell you,
I said I was scared
I said I was scary
I said I was scarred
...nevermind,
you're not listening.
Somewhere in your lonely room
maybe you'll think,
maybe you'll find...
You should have known it all the time,
but,
you weren't listening.
I said I was scared
I said I was scary
I said I was scarred
...nevermind,
you're not listening.
