James Blunt - I Can't Hear The Music lyrics

Is it a warning?
Is it an evil sign?
Is it a people, who have lost their mind?
Is it the darkness?
Is it a memory?
Is it a best friend, leaving you behind?

Is it ever gonna stop?
Will they ever let you go?
You're in a rush, they don't care enough, cause their lives are very slow

Time is ticking on
You don't get a second shot and when you sell you soul for a leading role will the lost souls be forgot?

And if I can't hear the music
and the audience is gone
I'll dance here on my own
And I hope the lonely hearts band
will play out one last song
before the sun goes down

And is it envy?
Should it really make you sick?
Is it another time that you realise you'd better get out quick
Cause time is ticking on - too long to fake a smile
But then you sell your soul for a leading role so wear it for a while

And if I can't hear the music
and the audience is gone
I'll dance here on my own
And I hope the lonely hearts band
will play out one last song
before the sun goes down
And there she goes
And there she goes

So, ________________________
Cause Billy's got himself a job
And you're right to be afraid
They'll send you to your grave
Cause you're strange and new,

So, ________________________
Cause Billy's got himself a job
And you're right to be afraid
They'll send you to your grave
Cause you're strange and new

And if I can't hear the music
and the audience is gone
I'll dance
