I never could find the words To say what I was feeling I thought though, You could see them around me Like the glow of radiation You read about in comics I expected people to listen And find my words somewhere in the silence But no one did And my words floated around in the air And disintegrated Somewhere thousands of miles above the earth I never could find the words To say what I was feeling I thought though, If I wrote them down Told the story My story People would understand And find my meaning somewhere on the page But no one did The blank pages stared Meaning never came And they disintegrated Somewhere thousands of miles below the earth

Silence
I never could find the words To say what I was feeling I thought though, You could see them around me Like the glow of radiation You read about in comics I expected people to listen And find my words somewhere in the silence But no one did And my words floated around in the air And disintegrated Somewhere thousands of miles above the earth I never could find the words To say what I was feeling I thought though, If I wrote them down Told the story My story People would understand And find my meaning somewhere on the page But no one did The blank pages stared Meaning never came And they disintegrated Somewhere thousands of miles below the earth
