Lyrics:

Oh here you are, there's nothing 
left to say.
    You're not supposed to be that 
way. . .
Did they push you out, did they 
throw you away?
Continues after the ad
    Touch me now and I don't care.
    When you take me I'm not there.
    Almost human, but I'll never be 
the same.

Long way down, I don't think I'll 
make it on my own.
Long way down, I don't want to live 
in here for long (alone).
Long way down, I don't think I'll 
make it on my own.

I never put you down, I never pushed
 you away.
    You're not supposed to be that 
way.
And anything you want, there's 
nothing I could say.
    Is there anything to feel?
    Is it pain that makes you real?
    Cut me off before it kills me.

I never put you down, I never pushed
 you away.
    Take another piece of me.
    Give my mind a new disease.
    And the black and white world 
never fades to gray.
