Peter Ross - Dumb Poet lyrics

How do you keep up with your thoughts When they run through you like a train How do you catch them Slow them down again I tried to reach you But you would not come down You always turn honesty You always turn things round Dumb poet Dumb poet Come on give me an answer Lets frame it on the wall Lets all stand back and admire it Never let it fall That thin thread of hope Is sometimes all that we have So give me back my innocence That's all I ever had Dumb poet Dumb poet I won't kiss your tears Or keep you here with me I will never falter I will be outside I will make this promise I will never come down If looks could k** I'm ten times dead But there's no time for that now Dumb poet Dumb poet Dumb poet Dumb poet Dumb poet Dumb poet That's all I'll ever be
