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
