David & The Citizens - Absent Mind lyrics

Tell me words, tell me words Pretty or frightening I need to feel like there's something happening I follow people from the balcony I am a fly on the wall and you can't see me Tell me words, tell me words, say anything Take off your armor and show me a plan All this time, I've had two empty hands Tell me words, tell me words You used to have many Now they're as rare as snow in this city Tell me something, honey False or true You know I'd listen to anything from you So tell me words, tell me words Draw me a picture, show me a map All this time, I've had an absent mind Is it true, what they say? There's no night and there's no day Just a red line connecting the dots Between what you've got And what you have not... Tell me words, tell me words Heavy or lightweight I don't care, just say something My hands are pretty, my hands are dirt My hands are empty, oh give me words I might fall down and I might stick around But in between these images, before it gets worse Tell me words 'Cause my hands are pretty, my hands are dirt My hands are empty, oh give me words...
