《Distractions》歌词

[00:00:20] Standing alone in a crowded room

[00:00:25] He hears it

[00:00:30] A voice so familiar

[00:00:33] Not unlike his own

[00:00:35] He fears it

[00:00:40] His name being called out from across the room

[00:00:45] But he can't see

[00:00:50] He's willingly blindfolded starting towards the voice

[00:00:56] But each step leads

[00:00:59] Into a dance with a different stranger

[00:01:08] His purpose he quickly forgets

[00:01:14] Each dance delights till the song is through

[00:01:20] But the silence between the songs

[00:01:24] Reminds him what he'd intended to do

[00:01:30] But the voice it knows no time

[00:01:33] Waits patiently

[00:01:37] Can't record a wrong

[00:01:40] His past it can't see

[00:01:44] And if it takes him forever

[00:01:46] It'll still be there

[00:01:48] Waiting jealously

[00:02:07] He moves towards the voice

[00:02:10] More determined now but still can't see

[00:02:17] The music begins and he's pulled away again by flattery

[00:02:27] Just as with a drug the words purposely inoculate

[00:02:37] All puffed up but silence

[00:02:40] When the music ends

[00:02:43] Quickly deflates

[00:02:46] Now the voice

[00:02:49] Though never changing

[00:02:54] Begins to sound to him like a shriek

[00:03:00] He covers his ears with his hands

[00:03:06] Now deaf and blind

[00:03:09] He wanders aimlessly

[00:03:13] Submerged in the darkness

[00:03:16] He's forgotten what he was to be

[00:03:50] But the voice it knows no time

[00:03:53] Waits jealously

[00:03:57] Can't record a wrong

[00:04:01] His past it can't see

[00:04:04] And if it takes him forever

[00:04:08] It'll still be there

[00:04:16] Waiting patiently

[00:04:23] Waiting patiently

[00:04:41] He cannot see the floor is wet

[00:04:44] Nor does he hear the strangers warn

[00:04:51] He slips onto his back and lying paralyzed

[00:04:57] He feels forlorn

[00:05:01] The music begins and strangers whom he trusted

[00:05:07] Leave him there

[00:05:12] Helpless and immobile lying on the floor

[00:05:17] And no one cares

[00:05:20] But the voice that once was distant

[00:05:29] Sounds as though it's right next to his ear

[00:05:34] And no longer the shrieking does he hear

[00:05:39] The voice says

[00:05:39] Walk and suddenly

[00:05:42] He knew he would

[00:05:46] It says

[00:05:46] Remove the blindfold

[00:05:48] Suddenly he knew

[00:05:51] He always could

[00:05:54] But the voice it knows no time

[00:05:58] Waits patiently

[00:06:02] Can't record a wrong

[00:06:05] His past it can't see

[00:06:08] And if it takes him forever

[00:06:12] It'll still be there

[00:06:16] Waiting jealously

[00:06:18] Waiting jealously

[00:06:22] But the voice it knows no time

[00:06:26] Waits jealously

[00:06:30] Can't record a wrong

[00:06:33] His past it can't see

[00:06:36] And if it takes him forever

[00:06:40] It'll still be there

[00:07:05] Waiting patiently
