Odd Romance

(All right, let's just try something new here)
(Just let it all out)

As the sun died just to let the moon breath
I wondered if your mind ever had room for me
Digging through my pockets cause these pockets feel so heavy
Just to find out that my pockets still remain so empty
Waiting patiently just for the wheel to turn again
I made my way on foot, but could never find the end
So let me listen to the rhythm as my eyelids drop
Hiding behind the music just to make the voices stop
The air was not welcome, it was poison to my lungs
A name left forgotten, a story never sung
Though it's not the air or it's sensation that I miss
But it's the portrait that my mind creates that truly brings me bliss
So as the lanterns hang throughout the empty sky
I found the courage that I needed to open my eyes
Eradicate this feeling of animosity
Despite all the love that you never left for me

So give me the time so that I may define exactly what you may find living in my mind
An imagination that'll take away this pain
And all these ideas that reside in my brain
You got one chance to speak one chance to listen
One chance to look just to see what is missin'
As your judgment rains on my disposition
Expecting my submission for taking this position
I don't need your approval, I don't need your permission
I don't need your advice, I don't need your opinion
All I got is me and there's no better edition
And taking this path was my only decision
So respect my politics and my religion
You don't know what I've gone through, you don't know where I've been
So let me listen to the rhythm as my eyelids drop
Hiding behind the music just to make the voices stop

I only act myself when nobody is looking
And when I'm outside I do what the others are doing
But if I'm too shy to scream, I will always keep losing
What's the point of living life if you never keep pushing
There is so much to do, so much to be said
My words cannot forever live inside of this head
So let me listen to the rhythm as my eyelids drop
Hiding behind the music just to make the voices stop
So let me listen to the rhythm as my eyelids drop
Hiding behind the music just to make the voices stop
So let me listen to the rhythm as my eyelids drop
Hiding behind the music just to make the voices stop

(You know, if you ask me, I think you'll be all right)
