[ The Phone Rings, But All That You Hear Is A Dial Tone ]
[ That Makes You Feel So Much More Alone ]

[ No Music Or Voice ]
[ Not Any Type Of Noise ]

[ That Keeps Happening Throughout The Day ]
[ You Are Trying To Find Someplace To Lift Your Spirits ]
[ But You Cannot Find The Way ]

[ You Feel Lost & Your House Seems So Large & Vacant ]
[ Oh How You Wish You Could Get On The Phone ]
[ & Have Someone Come Over In An Instant ]

[ People Have Moved All Around The State ]
[ Maybe You Feel That This Was Fate ]

[ Or Maybe Karma Catching Up To You Because Of Your
     Raucous Childhood ]
[ When You Always Thought That You Were Vastly
     Misunderstood ]

[ You Tried To Buck Against The System Every Chance You
     Got ]
[ Everytime, That You Were Put On The Spot ]

[ So Now You Spend Your Nights Making Wishes On
     Falling Stars ]
[ You Have Never Taken A Drink When You Were By Yourself ]
[ & You Do Not Want To Hit The Bars ]

[ The Last Drink You Took Was Over 25 Years Ago ]
[ Alot Of People, Through The Years Had Tried To Entice You ]
[ But The Answer Was Always A Simple (NO) ]

[ Getting Drunk Was Never Your Thing ]
[ In Your World ]
[ Alcohol Was Not Your King ]

[ The Silence Gets Loud @ Night ]
[ Especially When The Darkness Takes Your Sight ]

[ Your Hearing Takes The Place Of Your Eyes ]
[ Your Head Remembers All Of The Lies ]

[ How Do You Replace The Silence With Conversation? ]
[ Whenever You Meet Someone New ]
[ You Have Your Reservations ]

[ Your Guard Is Always Up @ First ]
[ & A Simple Taste Of Water Will Quench Your Thirst ]

[ You Fill Your Days Up By Taking Long Walks ]
[ & Silent Talks ]

[ You Feel That You Can Feel & Hear Your Heartbeat @
     The Same Time ]
[ It Was A Good Walk Yesterday, Because You Found A
     Shiny Dime ]

[ Oh, To Want So Much ]
[ Then You Receive So Little ]
[ Of The Human Touch ]

[ You Have So Much To Give ]
[ In The Manner Of Which You Live ]
