lyrics
I don’t know.
It’s out of my control.
The music faded out so long ago
from the radio,
and ever since just failed attempts to find a clear signal.
I’d turn the dial slow,
but static overwhelmed the speakers, so
I gave up the struggle.
Now every time a song revives I fail to hit the notes.
No, don’t sit there and swear
that if I wanted I could learn.
My family, historically,
is not one I would consider
as musically inclined, so why
would my abilities differ?
If I take the stage, I’m so afraid
that I’d forget the words.
I don’t know why I’m suddenly,
revealing everything,
I guess I’ve had too much to drink,
my glass looks empty, look this
conversation’s depressing
let’s change the ambience
and lighten the mood just a bit
and lift our spirits, well
this cigarette should do the trick
My head is so crowded,
I think I lost you in the clutter,
I wish you were here.
I wish you were here.
You can take away,
this tightness in my chest,
stop my head from shouting,
tell me it’s okay,
keep me from falling away.
I pushed you aside,
and I apologize,
it happened all the time,
I know I’ll never change,
and I don’t know why.
When the beat began and you extended your hand,
(you wouldn’t understand, you wouldn’t understand)
I took it, then I second-guessed myself with every step
(you wouldn’t understand, you wouldn’t understand)
your body leapt to the breath of every instrument,
(you wouldn’t understand, you wouldn’t understand)
my uncoordinated steps began effecting your dance
(you wouldn’t understand, you wouldn’t understand)
I didn’t mean to make it seem like I intentionally
faltered my feet, shut off the beat, just for your disdain,
I couldn’t justify the need to intervene with the piece,
to compromise its dignity, so I walked away.
You wouldn’t understand.
