With my back turned
I'll see everything from undetected eyes
I'll watch every move inside and out
Every shelf built
All with determination of reaching the skies

With my back turned and eyes shut
I'll automatically know
When you choose to fall apart
Giving up, making due with what you've got
Forgetting your mind once every so pressing to make a mark

With my back turned, eyes shut and heart broke
I'll protect my tender hands from your pulling force
I'll pretend I'm in this world all alone
Forget how I was once loved but left so cold
I'll turn my back on the world turning my heart to stone
