[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Do not listen to a word I say
Just listen to what I can keep silent
The only way to gain approval
Is by exploiting the very thing that cheapens me
[Chorus]
And I stare at the sky
And it leaves me blind [-ind]
I close my eyes
And This Is Yesterday [-day]
[Verse 2]
Someone, somewhere, soon will take care of you
I repent, I'm sorry, everything is falling apart
Houses as ruins and gardens as weeds
Why do anything when you can forget everything?
[Chorus]
And I [I] stare at the sky
And it leaves me blind [-ind]
I [I] close my eyes
And This Is Yesterday [-day]
[Instrumental Bridge / Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
And I [I] stare at the sky
And it leaves me blind [-ind]
I [I] close my eyes
And This Is Yesterday [-day]
