You say come over
Let's have a little chat
And I say "Okay, I guess I'm fine with that"
But as we get to talking, I could go insane
You just kept speakin' those words
And it started to hurt my brain
One word after the other
No space for me to say
"Sorry, but, I've got to go"
"We'll talk another day"
Sitting there still tryin' smile but it seems impossible
'Cause honestly I was getting
Tired of words, words, words
Don't want 'em anymore
Words, words, words
How could I deal with them before
It's like they've taken over
And there's nowhere I can hide
What good do they bring? Never fixed anything
So as you can see that's why I'm not speaking
Words
Everywhere I go words are coming at me
From on the radio and on the TV
People stop to say "Hello"
But that's not what I need
What I want from these words is to be freed
One words after the other
No space for me to say
"I have to leave and get some space"
"I've got to get away"
Sitting there impatiently
Trying not to cry
'Cause honestly I was getting
Tired of words, words, words
Don't want 'em anymore
Words, words, words
How could I deal with them before
It's like they've taken over
And there's nowhere I can hide
What good do they bring? Never fixed anything
So as you can see that's why I'm not speaking
What's the point of narrating life?
'Cause you know that words will only hurt you inside
You make your promises
And then you break them
Who says forgiveness can be written with a pen?
Shhh I hold you hand and try to let it go
But you keep on bring back feeling and they show
Your light keeps dimming everything around
And the words I'm feeling
They can't be found to explain how I feel right now
Words, words, words
Don't want 'em anymore
Words, words, words
How could I deal with them before
It's like they've taken over
And there's nowhere I can hide
What good do they bring? Never fixed anything
So as you can see that's why I'm not speaking
