A Song For The Deaf lyrics

Nobody’s coming down the hall

Nobody echoes in my head

Broken reflection out of luck

Nobody ever needed it

I got what was

I want to take what’s left

(Ready now)

Beautiful senses are gone

Canary in a gilded cage

Singing

Sweet, soft, and low

I will poison you all

Come closer, racing to your tongue

I got what was

I want to take what’s left

(Ready now)

No talk will cure

What’s lost, or save what’s left

(For the deaf)

The blind can go get fucked

Lie beside the ditch

This halo round my neck

Has torn out every stitch

Who are you hiding

Is it safe for the deaf

Beautiful cancer

Infiltrate and forget

When I saw you coming

And I heard not a thing

A mistake not to listen

When I knew where you’d been

I got what was

I want to take what’s left

(Ready now)

No talk will cure

What’s lost, or save what’s left

(For the deaf)
