Lyrics

(Source: as heard)

It's making me do things
I don't want to do.
It's poisoning me, weakening me.
You can't see.
It's lessening, like you.
I'm still listening,
Still listening.
Rescue me,
Won't you, ooh-ooh,
It's getting so late, ohh,
You can't see,
Begging you,
Still listening.
I believed you.
Oh, I wanted to.
And it was wonderful
So beautiful, ohh,
All gave in.
Release me.
Rescue me,
Won't you, ooh-ooh,
It's getting so late, ohh,
You can't see,
I'm telling you,
I'm still listening.
I believed you.
Oh, I wanted to.
But it's poisoning me, weakening me.
You can't see.
It's lessening.
Rescue me,
Won't you?
It's getting so late,
I can't see.
I'm telling you,
I'm still listening.
Still, still, still, still,
Still, still, still, still,
Still, still listening.
Listening, listening.
Still, still, still, still
Still, still.
You're not listening.
