I lie awake as confusion pounds
The subtle sting of your words that have been rehearsed
Lost inside a parade of sound
That stumbles clumsily around my head until it hurts
A supernova of tears burst out
Then the apathy settles like a silent snow
Sedated so I won’t drink for now
I’m not sure there is anything I want to know
I hear all the words you speak
But I can’t make them clear
So I listen to the static in the air
I hear all the words you speak
But I can’t make them clear
So I listen to the static in the air
(Won’t you)
Spill out your empty promises and failed predictions
Veiled behind your broken logic and your contradictions
Then I recall how innocence can mask intention
But I can’t distinguish fact from my imagination
What if this process is insane
I hear all the words you speak
But I can’t make them clear
So I listen to the static in the air
I hear all the words you speak
But I can’t make them clear
So I listen to the static in the air
I reach across the bed
Now that you’re not there
And I begin to crumble
I hear all the words you speak
But I can’t make them clear
So I listen to the static in the air
I hear all the words you speak
But I can’t make them clear
So I listen to the static in the air
