    Could it be...

    Could it be, that you don't care
    Sitting there, with that empty stare
    Pondering, where you'd rather be
    Thinking about, everyone but me

    Feels like I'm, talking to a brick wall
    There is no life, in your eyes at all
    I've told you, everything I feel
    But still you sit, all concealed

    Your pulse is weak
    Your breathing's slow
    Your stare is bleak
    Your eyes don't show
    Any emotion
    Why can't you say
    What you're feeling
    Inside these days

    Or maybe you're, just a little tired
    Of hearing me, rant, rave, and conspire
    About everyone, that's ever hurt me
    Is that it? Could it be?

    Your pulse is weak
    Your breathing's slow
    Your stare is bleak
    Your eyes don't show
    Any emotion
    Why can't you say
    What you're feeling
    Inside these days
