fyi

listener

hi

i'm a listener and i'm all ears

i've been spoke down to for years

with words designed to cause tears

but they don't

hey

i'm a whisperer and i soak in jeers

been forced to face my fears

with accusations of wasted years

but i'll float

cuz hey

i'm a helpless dreamer with a gift to hear

and a curse to expose what's going on here

trapped against my will in a world that's weird

with no hope

for real i am a listener and here's a little fyi. manchild smashes the track with the passion of ten men

on some wizard of oz type telepathic magic as we blend in

send trends packing

intercepted at the entrance

descended from a long line of penitential strong minds

designed for the long haul. surprised we got this far?

you paid dues? me too

i charged mine on my credit card

so if with every car that passes

you scream

i got to have it"
