Close to a decade of my life will fly by
School friends and I, we remain distant
They remain pissed off and twisted
Think they mad at me, 'cause they
Didn't invite me around for Christmas
Six or seven years will pass before this
Got me writing on my fan page, "Whoa, if
What we do, Paul, for you to just ignore us?"
Before I was a fallen tree up in the forest
Didn't hear me
Well until the chorus on the radio bellowed through those airwaves
Didn't see me fall
I hit the staircase, the stage, staircase to airplane
And I ain't mad at them, I can imagine they missing me
Sometimes just listen to me, listen to me
Sometimes glycerine into an open wound and it hurts
And see, Perth is a small place
Know my mum's family was there from the beginning
Witnessing the conviction, listening when I needed them
Where were you? Probably sleeping in
Either that or you seem to be speaking in tongues
Some foreign language I don't understand
And you can run your mouth all you want
But I got bigger plans to be a bigger man
So I don't wanna talk for the sake of talking
I don't wanna hear what they have to say
I don't wanna listen, don't wanna listen if it's all the same
No, I don't wanna hear it
I don't deserve to listen if it's all the same
No, I don't wanna hear it
I don't wanna hear it
Nah, see, I had the walking dead walk 'em through the corridors
Force-fed another corpse's head
Course of meds 'til his legs were vegetables, but he wanted more
A connoisseur of chemicals, high off the gas, a cosmonautic holocaust
Lost your peace of mind like Michael Jack
No Peter Pan, no one to blame when it's on your back
Bro, she taught me that
No walking backwards through the door
Vacuum packed into a room had me backed into a wall
A witch's cauldron
Smoke and mirrors, hearing my name called in
Ghostly shivers delivered down my
Spine and the environment of violence
Like a zombie insomnia fucker sucking my eyelids
Don't lie, you like hearing the screams
My inner demons, the difference between living and dreaming
My meaning of life tonight is just being alive
But at times it felt like an asylum
Simon gave me the Alzheimer's
Peter gave me the amnesia
I see same faces each day of the week
But I don't understand the language that they speak
The asylum, the asylum, the asylum
So pardon me if I don't talk for the sake of talking
I don't wanna hear what they have to say
I don't wanna listen, don't wanna listen if it's all the same
No, I don't wanna hear it
I don't deserve to listen if it's all the same
No, I don't wanna hear it
I don't wanna hear it
So why you gotta go and talk for the sake of talking?
I don't wanna hear what they have to say (Have to say)
I don't wanna listen, don't wanna listen if
It's all the same (If it's all the same)
No, I don't wanna hear it
I don't deserve to listen if it's all the same
No, I don't wanna hear it
I don't wanna hear it
I don't want to hear what you have to say
'Cause it's all the same, ooh, it's all the same
I don't want to hear what you have to say
Don't want to listen if it's all the same (If it's all the same)
If it's all the same
I don't wanna hear it
