lyrics

So little of your time took up all of mine
Funny looking back
I’m a lot of things but not typically the clown
But I’m quick to adapt

Did you ever find my words, and are you ever going to send them back?
A sign language I made up, a one-way radio, a secret map

So little of your ink bled on all my papers
On every word I wrote
Uncovering the stain, smaller on each page
But I keep flipping back

You pulled me out of my own wreck
I don’t expect you here to hold my hand
Some unknowns are better left alone
I let them waste away into a stone, into a stone
I’m on my own with your sticks and stones
I’m on my own

So little of your gaze could trap me in a daze
Daydreaming wove a web I’m still trying to shake
Entire days I’d waste, rooting for the cause

Did you ever find my words, and are you ever going to send them back?
