lyrics

No vocabulary
Look at you, look at you,
look at you now, your face all torn
with deep frustration & worn out
with a feeling no one understands what you’re saying
and this feeling isn’t that absurd at all
Looking for words
but they’re not there, they’re not there yet
Sounds that you’ve heard
still don’t mean anything
No vocabulary
Just you wait
There’s so much, there’s so much
there’s so much sounds that mean something
but the meaning still don’t make bells ring
You moan, you cry, you even start to sing
The thoughts you have they still remain within

It’s not that, it’s not this
it’s just the things you need to say
and this feeling you’re so close to speech
the lips & tongue & cheeks you try to teach
to say the words that still are out of reach

Look at you, look at you,
look at you now, your first word born
from a fully raging inner storm
A feeling you’ve created a new world
and this feeling isn’t that absurd at all
Looking for words
I think that you’re getting there yeah
Sounds that I’ve heard
really start to mean something
Your vocabulary
grows & grows & grows
