The Listening
Lights - The Listening
Please excuse me, Im not thinking clear
it must just be stress
I most likely shouldnt be here,
Im such a mess
I never really ever know what to say
when all of my emotions get in the way
Im just trying to get us on the same page
I always get a fight in it afterwards
when all of my precautions are said and heard
How come I can never get to the right words?
I need to convey
Wish I could explain
the things that I have to work out
I dont feel right
What has come over me, Im about
to lose my mind
I never really ever know what to say
when all of my emotions get in the way
Im just trying to get us on the same page
I always get a fight in it afterwards
when all of my precautions are said and heard
How come I can never get to the right words?
I need to convey
Wish I could explain
Cant I let the trees do the talking?
Cant I let the ground do the walking?
Cant I let the sky fill whats missing?
]And cant I let my mouth do the listening?
I never really ever know what to say
All of my emotions get in the way
Im just trying to get us on the same page
I always get a fight in it afterwards
when all of my precautions are said and heard
How come I can never get to the right words?
need to convey
Wish I could explain
what I need to say
