歌词

[00:22.34] Well as a child I mostly spoke inside my head
[00:27.83] I had conversations with the clouds the dogs the dead
[00:33.13] And they thought my broken that my tongue was coated lead
[00:36.89] But I just couldn't make my words make sense to them
[00:41.06] If you only listen with your ears I can't get in
[00:49.36] And I spent my evenings pulling stars out of the sky
[00:54.66] And I'd arrange them on the lawn where I would lie
[01:00.22] And in the wind I'd taste the dreams of distant lives
[01:03.58] And I would dress myself up in them through the night
[01:08.08] While my folks would sleep in separate beds and wonder why
[01:57.34] And through them days I was a ghost atop my chair
[02:02.53] My dad considered me a cross he had to bear
[02:08.02] And in my head I'd sing apologies and stare
[02:11.64] As my mom would hang the clothes across the line
[02:15.63] And she would try to keep the empty from her eyes
[02:24.06] So then one afternoon I dressed myself alone
[02:29.48] I packed my pillowcase with everything I owned
[02:34.97] And in my head I said goodbye then I was gone
[02:38.85] And I set out on the heels of the unknown
[02:43.02] So my folks could have a new life of their own
[02:47.39] So that maybe I could find someone
[02:50.95] Who could hear the only words that I'd known
