We, we've never lived without words
We, we've never lived without...
We force them out, we scream and shout
We make ourselves heard.
But can you hear me?
Can you hear me screaming through the walls
Or is it useless? 'Cause the truth is
These words will never be for your ears alone.
Chorus:
And when I say it to you
Something seems to run right through
And you miss the point
And I miss my chance, again.
And when you're speaking to me
Don't hesitate to hear me out
Before the words
Before the curtains fall on us, again.
We, we have a need to say what
We, we have a need to say...
What is or isn't, is or isn't... Is it obvious?
Is or isn't... Can you ever tell me if it's obvious?
But can you feel me?
Can you feel me standing right in front of you
Exactly where you want me
But these arms will never reach
As far as our precious words.
Chorus

Get Me Out of Here

I am not a person of conviction
Don't look to me for the truth
I can't get rid of this addiction
I am drinking away my youth
My eyes carry these embers
Embers of a forgotten fire
And yes, I guess, that no one remembers...
Get me out of here.
Stupid phone calls to relative strangers
It's 4am and I'm lying on the street
My life is potentially in danger
Of having to admit defeat
Now I'm wrecked, I am such a mess...
Get me out of here.
I don't wanna sound like I'm complaining
What I'm drinking just tastes so good
These life and times can be so draining
God am I just misunderstood?
Get me out of here.
