Lyrical Transcription: Official lyrics from Magazine liner notes

I heard you late last night
You know you talk too much
Not everything comes through these walls
But just enough
To hear the things that I don't want to hear

I heard you late last night
I wish I had my distance
I hear you crash around
And say that no one listens
I wish that I would hear you say goodnight

But nobody cares
Especially me
But I can't help myself
As I fall asleep
To turn out the lights
Turn back the sheets
Say goodnight and turn me on
Turn out the lights
Turn back the sheets
Turn me on

I heard you late last night
You were in such a hurry
Not a sound behind these walls
Makes me worry
I wish that I would hear you say goodnight

But nobody cares
Especially me
But I can't help myself
As I fall asleep
To turn out the lights
Turn back the sheets
Say goodnight and turn me on
Turn out the lights
Turn back the sheets
Turn me on

Say goodnight

But nobody cares
Especially me
But I can't help myself
As I fall asleep
To turn out the lights
Turn back the sheets
Say goodnight and turn me on
Turn out the lights
Turn back the sheets
Turn me on
