[00:16.74] I don't go to therapy to find out if I'm a freak
[00:21.25] I go and I find the one and only answer every week
[00:25.36] And it's just me and all the memories to follow
[00:29.56] Down any course that fits within a fifty minute hour
[00:33.72] And we fathom all the mysteries, explicit and inherent
[00:37.88] When I hit a rut, she says to try the other parent
[00:42.23] And she's so kind, I think she wants to tell me something,
[00:46.64] But she knows that it's much better if I get it for myself
[00:50.45] And she says
[00:51.66] Oooo Aaah
[00:55.54] What do you hear in these sounds?
[00:59.37] And Oooo Aaah
[01:04.01] What do you hear in these sounds?
[01:07.73]
[01:08.42] I say I hear a doubt, with the voice of true believing
[01:12.25] And the promises to stay, and the footsteps that are leaving
[01:16.66] And she says "Oh,"
[01:18.77] I say, "What?" she says, "Exactly,"
[01:20.98] I say, "What, you think I'm angry
[01:22.88] Does that mean you think I'm angry?"
[01:25.11] She says "Look, you come here every week
[01:27.61] With jigsaw pieces of your past
[01:29.72] Its all on little soundbytes and voices out of photographs
[01:33.84] And that's all yours, that's the guide, that's the map
[01:37.85] So tell me, where does the arrow point to?
[01:40.76] Who invented roses?"
[01:42.66] And ah Oooo Aaah
[01:46.93] What do you hear in these sounds?
[01:50.95] And Oooo Aaah
[01:55.56] What do you hear in these sounds?
[02:00.08]
[02:17.01] And when I talk about therapy, I know what people think
[02:20.93] That it only makes you selfish and in love with your shrink
[02:25.24] But oh how I loved everybody else
[02:29.54] When I finally got to talk so much about myself
[02:34.78]
[02:37.43] And I wake up and I ask myself what state I'm in
[02:41.54] And I say well I'm lucky, 'cause I am like East Berlin
[02:45.66] I had this wall and what I knew of the free world
[02:49.96] Was that I could see their fireworks
[02:52.28] And I could hear their radio
[02:54.19] And I thought that if we met, I would only start confessing
[02:58.41] And they'd know that I was scared
[03:00.51] They would know that I was guessing
[03:02.62] But the wall came down, and there they stood before me
[03:06.84] With their stumbling and their mumbling
[03:08.81] And their calling out just like me
[03:11.53] And ah Oooo Aaah
[03:15.56] The stories that nobody hears
[03:20.15] And Iiii
[03:24.21] Collect these sounds in my ears
[03:28.82] And Oooo Aaah
[03:32.85] That's what I hear in these sounds
[03:37.17] And Oooo Aaah
[03:41.59] That's what I hear in these
[03:43.69] That's what I hear in these
[03:46.20] Sounds
[03:51.04]
