about

after hours strained
I'm all alone
with my silly head
then I begin
to hear your
body talk

it speaks so well
so fluently
I don't know
what to say

and I don't know
what to say
and I like it
ooh, I don't mind it...

ancient flowers
bloom with you here
in this room
as the world outside dies
my mind defies
the laws of time
and the walls
oh and I don't
find it frightening
it's invitin' in

ooh, so enlightening
eww.. so enlightening

take my sad cup
and put in the sink
don't ask me how I feel
or what I think

let's trust each other in the silence
and let it speak

calm me down
back to the ground
where you're standing
where's you understanding?

calm me down
back to the ground
where you're standing
where's your understanding?

I won't make a sound
I won't make a sound
I won't make a sound
I won't make a sound

uh.. uh.. uh... uh...
