I know I lost my connection

What I feel don't rhyme with you today

And now I've lost my direction

In everything I think and do and say

Well I got up this morning

I thought that I had only dreamed

But I found out this evening

Everything's exactly as it seems

Not my time, it just don't seem to be my time

What went wrong? Don't understand what's on my mind

Not my time, time's all gone, can't carry on

I watched the sunrise this morning

And realized just how alone I am

And in the sky flashed a warning

Better hang on, do everything I can

Ooh, ooh, oh yeah, oh yeah

Oh, oh yeah, oh, oh yeah

'Cause in the silence of dawning

Everything comes harsh and loud and clear

And then I caught myself yawning

For I have grown accustomed to my fear

I'm just playing my music

Hope it's something you can hear

Then I'm told down at the diner

I can't look like me in there

I get so damn tired

Of hearing how I am a freak

Guess I'll just play my music

I won't waste energy to speak

Can you hear loud and clearly of my fear?

I need someone to be with me to listen to the silence

Getting loud like a shout all the time

Loud and clear, everything just blows my mind

Not my time, it just don't seem to be my time

What went wrong? Don't understand what's on my mind

Not my time, time's all gone, can't carry on
