Lyrics
Tell me what I've gotta do
There's no getting through to you
The lights are on but nobody's home
(Nobody's home)
You say I can't understand
But you're not giving me a chance
When you leave me, where do you go?
(Where do you go?)
All the walls that you keep building
All this time that I've spent chasing
All the ways that I keep losing you
(Losing you)
The truth is
You turn into someone else
You keep running like the sky is falling
I can whisper, I can yell
But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know
I'm just talking to myself
(Ooh) Talking to myself
(Ooh) Talking to myself
(Ooh) But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know
I'm just talking to myself
I admit I've made mistakes
But yours might cost you everything
Can't you hear me calling you home?
(Calling you home)
Oh
All the walls that you keep building
All this time that I've spent chasing
All the ways that I keep losing you
(Losing you)
The truth is
You turn into someone else
You keep running like the sky is falling
I can whisper, I can yell
But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know
I'm just talking to myself
(Ooh) Talking to myself
(Ooh) Talking to myself
(Ooh) But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know
I'm just talking to myself
All the walls that you keep building
All this time that I've spent chasing
All the ways that I keep losing you
The truth is
You turn into someone else
You keep running like the sky is falling
I can whisper, I can yell
But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know
I'm just talking to myself
(Ooh) I'm talking to myself
(Ooh) I'm talking to myself
(Ooh) Yeah I know, yeah I know, yeah I know
I'm talking to myself
