Texty: Jars Of Clay. The Long Fall Back to Earth. Headphones.

I don't have to hear it if I don't want to

It's a heavy world, it's too much for me to care
If I close my eyes it's not there

With my headphones on
With my headphones on
With my headphones on
With my headphones on

(I don't want to have to hear it [Incomprehensible])
With our headphones on, with our headphones on

I don't want to have to hear it
(I don't want to have to hear it)
I don't want to have to hear it
