Blinded by a heavy light on our stage
Greeted by a never ending glare
Bitter by day, giving in to the ideal
You're not at fault
My efforts unacknowledged
A case that can't be saved
I'm subdued
I'm subdued
I'm subdued
I'm subdued
I'm assured that we've moved forward though I'm being pushed back
(Back)
You smile through the numbness
You're slowly drifting away from me
Is your distance a choice?
Even though you're not to blame
(Blame)
My efforts unacknowledged
How can this be our fate?
I'm subdued
I'm subdued
I'm subdued
I'm subdued
