Lyrics

I Can't Hear The Music

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Is it a warning? Is it an evil sign?

Is it a people who have lost their mind?

Is it the Darkness? Is it a man resigned?

Is it a best friend leaving you behind?

Is it ever gonna stop? Will they ever let you go?

You're in a rush, they don't care enough 'cause they're lives are very slow

Time is ticking on, you don't get a second shot

And when you sell your soul for a leading role, will The Lost Souls be forgot?

And if I can't hear the music and the audience is gone

I'll dance here on my own

And I hope the Lonely Hearts' Club Band will play out one last song

Before the sun goes down

And is it envy? Should it really make you sick?

Is now the time that you realise you'd better get out quick?

Cause time is ticking on too long to fake your smile

But then you sold your soul for a leading role, so wear it for a while

And if I can't hear the music and the audience is gone

I'll dance here on my own

And I hope the Lonely Hearts' Club Band will play out one last song

Before the sun goes down

And there she goes, and there she goes

So run, Yoshimi, run (run, Yoshimi, run)

'Cause Billy's got himself a gun (Billy's got himself a gun)

And you're right to be afraid

They'll send you to your grave 'cause you're strange and new

So run, Yoshimi, run (run, Yoshimi, run)

'Cause Billy's got himself a gun (Billy's got himself a gun)

And you're right to be afraid:

They'll send you to your grave 'cause you're strange and new

And if I can't hear the music and the audience is gone

I'll dance
