Lyrics

The Words We Speak

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Let's clear the air with words we say

Or everyone will have to pay

For the actions that we both commit.

And why can't we be just like them,

And why don't we have any friends?

I think this life is chalked full of shit

And this can't be it.

Our thoughts are pressed against the wall,

You grip me tight as we both fall,

And i don't know what i should do now.

But finally we start to breathe

And finally start to believe

That the words we speak will save us somehow,

Will save us right now.

Time's moving faster as we both go.

Will it slow down, well nobody knows.

This can't be right 'cause it's all the same

And nothing here will ever change.

Now finally the time has come

We came so far and now we're done

But nothing here will change the past

So why don't we just leave this place

'cause nothing here will be erased

And the words we speak will go by so fast

And now they won't last

Time's moving faster as we both go.

Will it slow down, well nobody knows.

This can't be right 'cause it's all the same

And nothing here will ever change.

And every day of your lives'

They tell you you're no good

And that you'll never amount to anything

And that you should just give up all hope

Stop trying!

Time's moving faster as we both go.

Will it slow down, well nobody knows.

This can't be right 'cause it's all the same

Time's moving faster as we both go (i'll take my time to think shit through)

Will it slow down, well nobody knows (there's nothing left for me to do)

This can't be right 'cause it's all the same (i'm all alone and there's no one here)

And nothing here will ever change (i live my life in fear)
