Having Words

I live in an abstract place
When you're here with me I can't read your face
Your world has concrete walls
You open the door, but I'm in or I'm out

I had to break this feeling apart to give it to you in words
But you never heard
You never heard

Fractured by consonants, muddied by vowels
I know there was something inside of my head
But then I lose grasp of the alphabet
If I fill this space with sound
Then can you hear me out?

I gave you my words but you never heard
You tied them in knots and you threw them around
As soon as I spoke, the damage was done
But, feeling is fluid and so is this sound

Listen to me
Just hear me out
Listen to me
Just hear me out
Listen to me
Just hear me out

And if the words don't make sense
Just listen for the melody

Isn't it enough
Isn't it enough
Isn't it enough
Isn't it enough
