Lyrics

[00:00.18] It is not enough to be dumbstruck
[00:06.85] You must have the words in that head of yours
[00:28.43] Tell me a piece of your history that you're proud to call your own
[00:35.20] Speak in words you picked up as you walked through life alone
[00:41.65] We used to swim in your stories and be pulled out by their tide
[00:48.46] Choking on the words and drowning with no air inside
[00:54.57] Now you've hit a wall and it's not your fault
[00:57.97] My dear , my dear , my dear
[01:01.25] Now you've hit a wall and you hit it hard
[01:04.64] My dear , my dear , oh dear
[01:08.64] It is not enough to be dumbstruck
[01:13.10] Can you fill this silence ?
[01:15.18] You must have the words in that head of yours
[01:21.74] And oh oh , can you feel this silence
[01:25.40] I can't take it anymore
[01:27.99] Cause it is not enough to be dumbstruck
[01:32.98] Can you fill this silence?
[01:41.90] Tell me a piece of your history that you've never said out loud
[01:48.38] Pull the rug beneath my feet and shake me to the ground
[01:55.80] Wrap me around your fingers , break the silence open wide
[02:01.74] Before it seeps into my ears and fills me up from the inside
[02:07.85] Now you've hit a wall and you hit it hard
[02:11.29] My dear , my dear , oh dear
[02:14.58] Now you've hit a wall and you're lost for words
[02:17.92] My dear , my dear , my dear
[02:21.89] It is not enough to be dumbstruck
[02:26.20] Can you fill this silence ?
[02:28.55] You must have the words in that head of yours
[02:35.20] And oh oh , can you feel this silence
[02:38.47] I can't take it anymore
[02:41.79] Cause it is not enough to be dumbstruck
[02:46.23] Can you fill this silence?
[02:54.83] If you give it a name then it's already won
[02:57.97] What you good for? What you good for ?(x4)
[03:21.89] It is not enough to be dumbstruck
[03:26.28] Can you fill this silence ?
[03:28.51] You must have the words in that head of yours
[03:35.14] And oh oh , can you feel this silence
[03:38.46] I can't take it anymore
[03:41.43] Cause it is not enough to be dumbstruck
