_______________________________________

I have a heart that gets on everybody's nerves

They don't want the truth

They just want the words

Blah blah blah blah blah and I can sing until I'm dead

And none of you'll remember a single thing I said

What's the point in being a voice

When everyone's already sick of the noise?

Everyone's already sick of the noise

Everyone's already sick of the noise

What's the point in trying to change

When everyone's already stuck in their ways?

Everyone's happy with more of the same

More of the same, more of the same

We were born kicking and screaming

Until we learned to turn it down

Took our dreams and got in line

Held our breath and hoped to die

Fade on

And all along we got it wrong

Live a slow and painful life

Put our heart on hold inside

Fade on

And all along we got it wrong

(Oh) we keep it hush hush hush

Have you had enough?

Have you, have you had enough?

Took our dreams and got in line

Held our breath and hoped to die

Fade on

And all along, we got it wrong

I have a heart that gets on everybody's nerves

They don't want the truth

They just want the words

Oh I hate your static pace

You ask no questions, let things be

All you people never learn

And your heart gets on my nerves

And your heart gets on my nerves

And your heart gets on my nerves

We were born kicking and screaming

Until we learned to turn it down

Took our dreams and got in line

Held our breath and hoped to die

Fade on

And all along, we got it wrong

Live a slow and painful life

Put our heart on hold inside

Fade on

And all along, we got it wrong

(Oh) we keep it hush hush hush

Have you had enough?

Have you, have you had enough?

Took our dreams and got in line

Held our breath and hoped to die

Fade on

And all along, we got it wrong

But no one listens, 'cause no one cares

If you're alive at all let me see you stare

But no one listens, 'cause no one cares

If you're alive at all let me see you stare

I have a heart that gets on everybody's nerves

They don't want the truth

They just want the words

I have a heart that gets on everybody's nerves

They don't want the truth

They just want the words

Took our dreams and got in line

Held our breath and hoped to die

Fade on

And all along, we got it wrong

Live a slow and painful life

Put our heart on hold inside

Fade on

And all along, we got it wrong

(Oh) we keep it hush hush hush

Have you had enough?

Have you, have you had enough?

Took our dreams and got in line

Held our breath and hoped to die

Fade on

And all along, we got it wrong

We keep it hush hush hush
