pay attention, this is important.

Hear my voice
Did you really hear me?
Hear my voice
I don't think you see me
And you think you know me
Did you really hear me?
Would you really know me?
And you think you see me
Hear my voice
And you think you know me
But you don't hear me
And you think you know me
See me
And you don't know me
so much to say and no right to say it.

so there it is...

a moment of truth.

.a lack of colour.

and when i see you
i really see you upside down
but my brain knows better
it picks you up
and turns you around
turns you around
turns you around

if you feel discouraged
that there's a lack of colour here
please don't worry lover
it's really bursting at the seams
absorbing everything
the spectrum's a to z

this is fact not fiction
for the first time in years
and all the girls in every girly magazine
can't make me feel any less alone
i'm reaching for the phone

to call at 7:03 
and on your machine 
i slur a plea for you to come home
but i know it's too late
i should have given you a reason to stay
given you a reason to stay
given you a reason to stay
given you a reason to stay

this is fact not fiction
for the first time in years

today i will.

time is fleeting and ever more evasive
the list of to-do's ebbs and flows and though things get done, it never seems to be decreasing...

when does one get the time to stop and think through the day, all days, the past and the future, the present even...

when do we have the time to think to ourselves, really just to ourselves, and make the considerations and evaluations required to continue along this list of to-do's...

when does the needing and begging and crying and humming and hawing and all the talking to ourselves get done?

when can we voice our concerns, our problems, our fears, our THOUGHTS out loud?
to no one but ourselves...
to an empty room...

...i guess we add another to the list...
