ignore me if you don't like what I say
ignore me if you do not want a friend
ignore me and I will go my own way
if that bothers you it's your problem...
ignore me if you are just looking to fight
ignore me if you do not care to play
ignore me if you only know you are right
for you won't hear a word anyway...
can you hear your heart?
is it full of love?
is it full of poison?
what do you dream of?
open up your mind
you may be surprised
you can see a lot better
with open eyes...
ignore me if you are afraid to feel
ignore me if you just want to cast blame
ignore me if you're afraid to be real
for I will not play your game...
ignore me if you think you can read minds
ignore me if you just don't care to care
ignore me and leave all our troubles behind
just pretend that I am not here...
you're good at pretending
your life is like that
just using and taking
and not giving back
just write your own story
and fill it with lies
then you don't need to wake up
or open your eyes...
but repeating something does not make it right
you can scream the same words all day and all night
and you can ignore me and say what you say
and I will do as I will... I go my way...
where I've been, and what I am leaving behind
the darker corners of pain in my mind
the love abandoned and the hope betrayed
instant corruption of all plans we made
and when dreams are broken beyond all repair
it's time to let go so we can dream again
for sadly the saddest sadness of them all
is seeing how far you've fallen since then
ignore me if you don't like what I say
ignore me if you do not want to be kind
ignore me and I will go my own way
if that bothers you it's all in your mind...
ignore me if you are just looking to fight
ignore me if you do not care to play
ignore me if you only know you are right
for you won't hear a word anyway...
can you hear your heart?
is it full of love?
is it full of poison?
what do you dream of?
open up your mind
you may be surprised
you can see a lot better
with open eyes...
