What did you say?

I can't hear anything with these headphones on

I like to play my music just as loud as it goes

It empties my mind

It helps me in my time

It distracts me from the sound in my heart



(chorus)

Can you make that sound go away?

It keeps knock knock knocking all day

I think there's somebody there

Standing at the door



What did you say?

I just can't concentrate with the TV on

I like to sit real close to the screen if you know what I mean

Those people are there

They seem they're friends to me

They distract me from the sound in my heart



(chorus)



I'm not sure what they want but they want something

Well whatever it is I don't even want to know



What did you say?

I don't know what you're trying to tell me

But I can't stop to listen now 'cause I've got to go

I'm meeting some people

We're going out tonight

To distract ourselves from the sound in our hearts



(chorus twice)
