Lyrics

[00:02.21] Lights - The Listening
[00:20.03] Please excuse me, I'm not thinking clear
[00:25.35]
[00:27.70] it must just be stress
[00:30.77] I most likely shouldn't be here,
[00:37.40] I'm such a mess
[00:40.27] I never really ever know what to say
[00:42.36] when all of my emotions get in the way
[00:45.07] I'm just trying to get us on the same page
[00:50.02] I always get a fight in it afterwards
[00:51.69] when all of my precautions are said and heard
[00:55.78] How come I can never get to the right words?
[00:58.29] I need to convey
[01:00.57]
[01:02.87] Wish I could explain
[01:09.83] the things that I have to work out
[01:17.52] I don't feel right
[01:20.35] What has come over me, I'm about
[01:27.53] to lose my mind
[01:30.07] I never really ever know what to say
[01:32.54] when all of my emotions get in the way
[01:34.97] I'm just trying to get us on the same page
[01:39.65] I always get a fight in it afterwards
[01:42.23] when all of my precautions are said and heard
[01:45.01] How come I can never get to the right words?
[01:48.00] I need to convey
[01:58.39] Wish I could explain
[02:02.04] Can't I let the trees do the talking?
[02:15.56] Can't I let the ground do the walking?
[02:20.24] Can't I let the sky fill what's missing?
[02:25.85]] And can't I let my mouth do the listening?
[02:33.11] I never really ever know what to say
[02:42.22] All of my emotions get in the way
[02:44.46] I'm just trying to get us on the same page
[02:49.96] I always get a fight in it afterwards
[02:52.38] when all of my precautions are said and heard
[02:54.85] How come I can never get to the right words?
[02:58.21] need to convey
[03:00.10] Wish I could explain
[03:17.99] what I need to say
