Listen To Me

R.E. Todaro


Don't ask for my opinion 

If you already know

What I'm going to say

Don't ask me for my advice

If you're just gonna

Do it your way

I can see through you

Like a window in your room

As you're trying to sleep

You toss and turn as you

Try to count the sheep


Awaken demons in your head now

Hear the sound of the guilt

Taking over your dreams

Awaken demons in your head now

I tried to tell you but you

Didn't want to listen to me


It's a shame what happens to people

At the taste of total control

But what's worse is what happens

When they lose it

And use you to break their fall

I am using you as an example

Of exactly what not to do

Don't take for granted

Everyone one who's cared for you


Awaken demons in your head now

Hear the sound of the guilt

Taking over your dreams

Awaken demons in your head now

I tried to tell you but you

Didn't want to listen to...


Anyone or anything

(You used to be a good girl)

Something changed inside your head

(You used to be respectable)

Then you lost it all instead

(Friends became expendable)

Now you're looking for my hand

So you can rise back up

And take it back


Don't ask for my opinion 

If you already know

What I'm going to say

Don't ask me for my advice

You're just gonna do it your way


Awaken demons in your head now

Hear the sound of the guilt

Taking over your dreams

Awaken demons in your head now

I tried to tell you but you

Didn't want to listen to me
