lyrics
Well, I know you’re sad and angry that your character has been killed off
You’ve always been afraid you’d be written off and out of history
Now I see your crowd is dwindling
I want you to know that I’m not listening
The thing about history, you get a different answer depending on who you ask
Everyone describes the view from where they’re standing inside the story
I get the feeling something’s missing
I want you to know that I’m not listening
And I can see your mind is drifting
But I want you to know that I’m not listening
What happens offstage and offscreen
Is often known to the audience but not to the characters
Well, I get the feeling something’s missing
I want you that I’m not listening
And I know your focus is drifting
But I want you to know that I’m not listening
At least not to you, anyway
