2.2159 : 04/01/11 : Nothing to Say

Truly nothing to say about this one
I suppose that I hope
that will make it all different
oh but I've been speechless so many times before
I suppose I'll have to face
getting called on the floor
Silence is not forever an option
Someone must speak for the past
Someone for the new way's adoption
Sorry only gets you a little way
You're going to have to
come up with something to say
You'd think with the words
that circle round and round
there'd be no end of them
to wrap around the sound
refusing excuses, refusing half baked proverbs
refusing canned responses
and back jacket blurbs
I dance around it likely I'll forget it all
praying my unwanted silence
leaves a space to hear
a brighter call

what
