Lyrics of Faint by Linkin Park

verse

I am a little bit of loneliness, a little bit of disregard
Handful of complaints, but I can′t help the fact that everyone can see these scars
I am what I want you to want, what I want you to feel
But it's like, no matter what I do, I can′t convince you to just believe this is real

pre-chorus

So I let go, watching you
Turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that I'm not
But I'll be here ′cause you′re all that I got

chorus

I can't feel the way I did before
Don′t turn your back on me, I won't be ignored
Time won′t heal this damage anymore
Don't turn your back on me, I won′t be ignored

verse

I am a little bit insecure, a little unconfident
'Cause you don't understand, I do what I can, but sometimes I don′t make sense
I am what you never want to say, but I′ve never had a doubt
It's like, no matter what I do, I can′t convince you for once just to hear me out

pre-chorus

So I let go, watching you
Turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that I'm not
But I′ll be here 'cause you′re all that I got

chorus

I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me, I won′t be ignored
Time won′t heal this damage anymore
Don't turn your back on me, I won′t be ignored

bridge

No, hear me out now
You're gonna listen to me, like it or not
Right now, hear me out now
You′re gonna listen to me, like it or not
Right now (I can't feel the way I did before)
Don′t turn your back on me, I won't be ignored

chorus

I can't feel the way I did before
Don′t turn your back on me, I won′t be ignored
Time won't heal this damage anymore
Don′t turn your back on me, I won't be ignored

outro

I can′t feel
Don't turn your back on me, I won′t be ignored
Time won't heal
Don't turn your back on me, I won′t be ignored
