Unaffected

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'll say sorry if I've been carried I'll apologize when I'm finally free Of the everyday and droll The average and old and what lives in me [Verse 2] I'll be sorry when I've crapped out Down in the dumps when I let that monster out But it's bound to break free Bust out and bury me, that's the way it goes [Chorus] I don't care for the cries and the sighs They're exhausting and affected I'd rather it was all buried deep inside To leave me unaffected Left to a stoic silence, to sleep [Verse 3] Like hopeful little whispers Sweet words to ears, eyes, deaf and blind Unrequited slights Suffering despite what lives in me [Verse 4] I've been crafting my excuses Captured and caged emotion and lust But it's bound to break free Bust out and bury me, that's the way it goes [Chorus] I don't care for the cries and the sighs They're exhausting and affected I'd rather it was all buried deep inside To leave me unaffected Left to a stoic silence, to sleep [Outro] Don't be so obvious Stop being envious It's all so ponderous You'll catch your death in it I'm just an innocent Ain't got a stake in it Oblivious and bent If I say I'm sorry, will I be?
