[Intro] A song for the deaf, that is for you [Verse 1] Nobody's coming down the hall Nobody echoes in my head Broken reflection out of luck Nobody ever needed it [Chorus 1] I got what was I want to take what's left (Ready now) [Verse 2] Beautiful senses are gone Canary in a gilded cage Singing Sweet, soft, and low I will poison you all Come closer, racing to your tongue [Chorus 1] I got what was I want to take what's left (Ready now) [Chorus 2] No talk will cure What's lost, or save what's left (For the deaf) [Bridge: Mark Lanegan] The blind can go get f**ed Lie beside the ditch This halo round my neck Has torn out every stitch [Verse 3] Who are you hiding Is it safe for the deaf Beautiful cancer Infiltrate and forget When I saw you coming And I heard not a thing A mistake not to listen When I knew where you'd been [Chorus 1] I got what was I want to take what's left (Ready now) [Chorus 2] No talk will cure What's lost, or save what's left (For the deaf)
