Text
I'm looking for a girl who has no face, she has no name, or number. And so I search within this lonely place, knowing that I won't find her. But I can't stop this feelin' deep inside of me, rulin' my mind.	a
I feel no sound, don't know where I'm bound.	b
The scenery is all the same to me, nothing has changed, or faded. I'm a part of it's a part of me, painted cool green and shaded. So try to fend myself must be the only way to feel free.	c
