Losing Faith In Words - Lyrics by Hammill Peter


Lyrics
I just can't see why you can't see what I mean,but I can't make things any plainer, the words get in the way -is that quite what I mean?
If not now, then certainly sooner or laterwe've got a problem with communication -look, I scrabble with my hands
I try to get some head-room from the elevationbut you just don't understand
Most of the things we say mean we most of the timetreat our speech with derision,flap our hands in body-telegram - I know that gets throughso much better than anything said with precision.
We've got a problem with communicationand it's getting quite absurd...
Well, I think I'm going to flip out from the sheer frustration,yes, I'm losing faith in words.
We've got a problem with communication,only getting through in anagrams -I try to get some linkage from articulation,I try to get some head-room from the elevation,I try to pull back something from my education...
Yes, I try to, try to, try to but I just don't understand,I try, I just don't understand,I talk, you just don't understand.
Sometimes I don't know why I bother,but I'm bothered.
