headphones on (rewrite 1)

I've got my headphones on

I've got 'em turned up loud

I'm in my own little world

where you are not allowed

I've got nothing but noise

turned up to ten

so I can't hear you

you are not my friend

I've got my headphones on

your voice can't find my ears

I'm busy ignoring you

it could be my career

your mouth is wide open

but I can't hear your words

my avoidance of you

must leave you disturbed

          the sound of your breathing

          now has passed and gone

          so now I'm getting even

          I've got my headphones on

          I've got my headphones on

I've got my headphones on

I've got nothing to fear

because when it comes to you

I'm closing both my ears

so go your own way

and I will follow mine

everything comes to an end

in its own sweet time

          the sound of your breathing

          now has passed and gone

          so now I'm getting even

          I've got my headphones on

          I've got my headphones on
