hey John, you've got a lot to say for nothing on your mind
hey John, you got a way to make me feel like something out of absolutely nothing
hey John, you got a lot to say and I'm quilting a tragedy from your fragmented words unkind
hey John, how long can I keep my silence up
humming the lyrics that your mouth won't muster up
hey John, you say everything but absolutely nothing
You say it to me in
The way you let it breakthrough
Into the glaze covering your eyes
You say it to me in
The way you try to cover it up
but the redness can't be covered by the white of your eyes
So why do you even try
hey John, you've got a lot to say for nothing on your mind
hey John, you got a way to make me feel like something out of absolutely nothing
hey John, you got a lot to say and I'm quilting a tragedy from your fragmented words unkind
hey John, how long can I keep my silence up
humming the lyrics that your mouth won't muster up
hey John, you say everything but absolutely nothing
You say it to me.
