if i could listen

we forgot to care,

to remember how to share

in a world torn apart

crying about losing its' loving heart

we're together but can only sit and stare

as though no one else is there,

blowing kisses into thin air,

speaking words that never seem enough

to heal our wounds and smooth the rough:

we're alone and it didn't have to be this way

we didn't know what words to say

in a world filled with angels of the earth

all searching for sensations of self-worth.

we're alone in rooms we've made

fighting feelings that somehow we've been betrayed,

but doors swing both ways and windows open in and out;

if i could listen, i could hear your shout

if you could listen, you could begin to remove your doubt

in a world filled with angels of the earth

all searching for sensations of self-worth.

we're alone in rooms we've made

fighting feelings that we've been betrayed,

but doors swing both ways and windows open in and out

if i could listen, i could hear your shout

if you could listen, you could begin to remove your doubt.
