Let Me In

let's get this shit off my chest
i've got a lot to say
the words are there i just don't
really think, if i may
can i say what's on my mind
before you leave this all behind

you've been drifting away for quite some time
i think it's time for us to speak our minds

we are not the burdens we carry
we are not the disguises we show them all
we are the people in the here and now
we are in something that's completely missed something

open your mouth, spit it out
i know something's bothering you
you're like cellophane
i'm this close to giving up
on the only thing i love

you've been fading away for quite some time
i think it's time you let me in your sights

we are not the burdens we carry
we are not the disguises we show them all
we are the people in the here and now
and if your mind's somewhere else, then i've
fallen for the burdens you carry
fallen for the disguises you show everyone
fallen for the person that changed
i want the old you, where is the old you?

oh

i think it's time for us to speak our minds
i don't need to say we're running out of time
you looking out the window
is prolonging the inevitable

please, let me in

we are not the burdens we carry
we are not the labels they've given
we are the people in the here and now
and i cannot believe i've actually fallen
for the person in front of me (for the burdens you carry)
for the disguises that you've kept on so long
you've changed

stop fading (you won't stop drifting away)
stop fading (i won't stop drifting away)
stop fading, stop fading
stop fading, (you won't stop drifting away)
stop fading, (i won't stop drifting away)
stop fading, stop fading...
