For millions of years mankind lived just like animals
Then something happened which unleashed the powers
of our imagination
We learned to talk.


There's a silence surrounding me
I can't seem to think straight
I'll sit in the corner
No one can bother me
I think I should speak now Why won't you talk to me
I can't seem to speak now You never talk to me
My words won't come out right What are you thinking
I feel like I'm drowning What are you feeling
I'm feeling weak now You never talk to me
But I can't show my weakness What are you thinking
I sometimes wonder What are you feeling
Where do we go from here

(Spoken: It doesn't have to be like this
All we need to do is make sure we keep talking.)


Why won't you talk to me I feel like I'm drowning
You never talk to me You know I can't breathe now
What are you thinking We're going nowhere
What are you feeling We're going nowhere
Why won't you talk to me
You never talk to me
What are you thinking
Where do we go from here


It doesn't have to be like this
All we need to do is make sure we keep talking.
