Would you rather be more than things that you say? Or just be the words that you sing to yourself in your head? When nobody's around... Or would you rather be a part of the crowd or just a single sound? Waiting to be heard... Do you know what I mean?

Bum, badum badumpa dum badumpa dum, etc Dear Mister Quiet who's got so much say So much more than all of the sleeping parade If I could tie up a string to your mouth and make you scream All of the things you keep to yourself I'd love to get to know you better Dear Mister Quiet Man I'd love to get to know you better When nobody's around... Well now we're all staring at the end of the world Everybody had their hands on their head while they sang Well I told you so While everybody's walking their own way through the quiet crowd All thinking the same old things If only they knew...
