How do I feel? Alone and lousy   And I may seem selfish but I need   A little break on my own, can’t you see   I’m just tired of being phony      So for a while stop calling me, my friend   I’ve spent 20 years forgetting myself and then   What else? Am I just incomplete?   Sometimes I’m so sick of being sweet      I’m sure far away from me   You’d feel better than down here   So why don’t you take a look at this path   And then you’ll see…   ‘Cause I’ll never be a bit far away from me      So here I’m again, in front of the TV   Watching lives more exciting than mine   Because there’s always just too many good reasons   Too many reasons to be sad      I’m sure far away from me   You’d feel better than down here   So why don’t you take a look at this path   And then we’ll see…   ‘Cause I’ll never be a bit far away from me   Why don’t you try to keep your distance?   That’s so weird to try to listen to myself   As long as I won’t be, for a while, far away from me   I know I may be rude   But failing is always cruel   Don’t wait for me to stand next to you   I won’t be here for a while   I won’t be here for a while      Nothing more than this silent scream inside   So what, do you wanna hear about self-control?   Talking a little louder than usual   Freeing myself from what I just don’t wanna hold      I’m sure far away from me   You’d feel better than down here   So why don’t you take a look at this path   And then we’ll see…   ‘Cause I’ll never be a bit far away from me   Why don’t you try to keep your distance?   That’s so weird to try to listen to myself   As long as I won’t be, for a while, far away from me   I know I may be rude   But failing is always cruel   Don’t wait for me to stand next to you   I won’t be here for a while   I won’t be here for a while   I won’t be here for a while   I won’t be here for a while
