Like the kind you hold inside you
When you act as if you just don't hear
I thought those days were dead and gone
And they were never to return again
And such a hurting feeling
Playing possum with another man
When you know it's your soul he's stealing
And I find it hard to understand
Why nothing ever seems to change
And all my moves are made in vain
My ears deafened by the years
Like a dog that's barking louder
When it's faced with it's darkness, fear
Does it elevate your character
To see another scream in pain
And such a hurting feeling
Playing possum with another man
When you know it's your soul he's stealing
And I find it hard to understand
Why nothing ever seems to change
And all my moves are made in vain
My ears deafened by the years
