Why don't you say something?
This silence is deafening
Putting a ringing in my ears
Maybe along the lines of, "How are you?"
I never knew you could disappear
So well, and so for real
Where'd you learn a trick like that?
I'd like to learn when you get the chance
So next time I want to treat someone like sh**
I can practice your disappearing trick
Along the lines of you
But this will never do
Until he knows that
All the words he wants to
Are all the words he's not supposed to say
Why don't you say something?
You're too busy, that's ok
I understand it's getting late
Tomorrow you have a busy day
And the day after that
And the day after that
And the day after that
You're busy too
But I wouldn't even know
Since my questions simply roll
Down the hill on which you lived
Before you just went and disappeared
So next time I want to treat someone like sh**
I can practice your disappearing trick
Along the lines of you
But this will never do
Until he knows that
All the words he wants to
Are all the words he's not supposed to say
