lyrics

Sometimes I hesitate
Can’t find the right words or explanations
I know inside I have the answers
But no articulation

And afterward I find the right phrase
Too late to be heard
And afterward I find the right phrase
Those defining words

Could have provoked a spark
Or a revelation
Could have posed the right questions
That could make you think

But I’m stuck in a sea of feelings
Left with so many regrets
Of words that could have been said

I tend to nod my head and agree
Because I know if I let the words go
Without focus or concentration
They explode

Well I can’t believe the things people say
I’m stricken by their ignorance and their arrogant display
Some people try and say things just to be heard
Without facts to back them up or articulated words
But maybe I’m too careful, maybe I should scream
And speak with provocation to manipulate the scenes
But maybe my silence is my best defense
I can stand back and let them show their ignorance

And let their words go
Can’t let my words go
