lyrics

"I Say Nothing" | Yori Swart | 2012

Well come on, and step a little closer
Bend your head like you do me a proposal
I like it when you read between the lines
These little black dots don’t lie
I say nothing
The sun is moving all around
Leaving bloodstains on the ground
I must run, to bandage its wounds
But it’s never done
And say nothing
I’ll keep my mouth shut
For those who’ll listen
I’ll stare at your shoes they’ll keep your feet in prison
But alright, there you go
You just keep on moving
And let me be slow
Sometimes I will stare at my ceiling
It gives me this warm and retarded feeling
Devotion, a physical release of this emotion
I will say nothing
Little daughter
Where do you go
I sit here all day watching the slaughter of Godot
I like doing this and listen,
Observing you and my metabolism
I say nothing
