Losing Faith In Words |
I just can’t see why you can’t see what I mean, |
but I can’t make things any plainer, the words get in the way — |
is that quite what I mean? |
If not now, then certainly sooner or later |
we’ve got a problem with communication — |
look, I scrabble with my hands |
I try to get some head-room from the elevation |
but you just don’t understand |
Most of the things we say mean we most of the time |
treat our speech with derision, |
flap our hands in body-telegram — I know that gets through |
so much better than anything said with precision. |
We’ve got a problem with communication |
and it’s getting quite absurd… |
Well, I think I’m going to flip out from the sheer frustration, |
yes, I’m losing faith in words. |
We’ve got a problem with communication, |
only getting through in anagrams — |
I try to get some linkage from articulation, |
I try to get some head-room from the elevation, |
I try to pull back something from my education… |
Yes, I try to, try to, try to but I just don’t understand, |
I try, I just don’t understand, |
I talk, you just don’t understand. |
Sometimes I don’t know why I bother, |
but I’m bothered. |
