The Less You Speak

Sometimes when I lie
all alone in my room
And I start to wonder
Past times which are filed
and stored on my mind
For me to ponder

I start to loosen the noose
'round my neck and I think of you
I dump my coat and unbutton my shirt
Grab a glass of scotch and ice

Hear me, this one and only time. Heal me,
be this your only crime
In this silence I thought I'd stay and hide,
I saw you smile and I just crept inside
Can't shake this thought off, can't take this thought off
That you had never seen

That all I said,
yeah all I said were just a fraction full of dread of all that I felt

Feels like my mind is all I have left
Smells like your and clothes and sweat on my bed
Can't you see it all so clear?
The less you speak, the more I hear

Give up this prudent quiet stance
Speak up, if not to leave your mark
Then to near me say I already know
That I do not regret I implore for more
I'd open all my cards and I would dare to ask
I know you rarely grant it but yet I'd want your trust

Cause all I said, yeah all I said
Were just a fraction full of dread of all that I felt

Hear me, can't you hear me calling?
Feel me and I'll feel you too
Hear me, hear me sigh
Scared of the thousand lakes, between me and you
