I've got words in my mouth To make you stay I've got hands in my pocket To put on yours But my hands remain And I've nothing to offer I shift my weight nervously And you're cross with crossed arms And you look at my feet And your ears are so eager To take on my words When I open my mouth I just breath out And shrug my shoulders And I can hear, I can hear All the words that I could say to you And I can see I can see That I'm falling from your grace But I can't stay I can't stay Even though you built a world for me And I can hear, I can hear What others might have said Got a rock in my shoe But I can't be bothered And I go to the movies Just to be in the dark There were songs in my ears But I can't remember How to sing them And i walk by the trees And they make me shiver It's as if they know That I made you suffer And if you disappear, disappear When I look away And I can hear, I can hear All the words that I could say to you And I can see I can see That the words are falling from your mouth But I can't stay I can't stay Even though you built a world for me And you were good, you were good Your lip is quivering, mine's not quivering That's not fair that's not right Won't you fight me fight me kick me down rightly Don't be kind, don't be gentile Your face is now a carved stone angel And I can't stay I can't stay Our world has been annihilated I can't stay, I can't stay The sun got in my eyes We never did make it to the lake
