We’re in a world of touch and go
the more we speak the less we know
We ask how you are then say “just fine,” but never a word about what’s behind
and I am tired of having no time
[Chorus:]
I want to talk to someone who will talk back
have a conversation, lost in syntax
I wanna go deeper than polite pleasantries, won’t get upset easily
Show me somebody who wants bigger than small talk
Everyday we run the line
the stories told a hundred times
It’s like all we do is sit and complain, but if it’s so bad, then why don’t we change it?
Don’t you have something you want to say?
[Chorus]
We’re all in here together
let’s volunteer to get better
I bet there are stories to tell but we’re all too polite, we don’t have the time
It’s so quiet and I can’t make a noise and it’s eating me alive. I-I-I-I-I
[Chorus]
