about

January 2014. For anyone who treasures real conversation.

lyrics

Verse 1:
Words are a threat
And a friend
And an end
To our conversations
Recreation
Consolation
But you can’t seem to
Stay away from the trivial
And you are oblivious
To the obvious
Us

Pre-Chorus 1:
Who am I and who are you?
What am I to you?
Who are you and who am I?
What are we tonight?

Chorus:
Don’t talk to me about her
Talk to me about you
Talk to me about us
Talk to me about me
This ain’t about the rest of the world
It’s about the rest of our lives

And don’t talk to me about them
I don’t care what they do
Talk to me about me
Talk to me about you
This ain’t about the rest of the world
It’s about the rest of our lives

Verse 2:
Words, and again
Your greatest strength
But even then
The ones that you choose
Just confuse
And make me lose
And you look on through
Like the world’s a sheet of glass
And you are oblivious
To the obvious
Facts

Pre-Chorus 2:
So who are we trying to be?
What are you to me?
Who are you and who am I?
What are we tonight?

Chorus:
Don’t talk to me about her
Talk to me about you
Talk to me about us
Talk to me about me
This ain’t about the rest of the world
It’s about the rest of our lives

And don’t talk to me about them
I don’t care what they do
Talk to me about me
Talk to me about you
This ain’t about the rest of the world
It’s about the rest of our lives

Pre-Chorus 3:
So who am I and who
Who am I and who are
Who am I and who are you?

Bridge:
And all your empty questions
Show no attention to
Any morsel of your comprehension
You gave not a single mention
Of your apprehension
So let’s stop all the pretention
Tonight

I’m sick of the derisions
The left and right collisions
And the reason, I will reason
Is your indecision
I will kindly ask your answer
On some kind of decision
On which side of the division
Am I?

Outro:
Words are a threat
And a friend
And an end
