lyrics

Don't mistake my silence for despondency
I'm just a ghost of my former self
'Cause I had no return like the prodigal son
'Cause I had no idea who I'd become

So when you talk listen more than you speak
And when you look, try to see
What's hidden in plain sight
Won't you recognise the symptoms of my plight

'Cause I no longer satisfy people's expectations
So how should I converse?
This bird has flown the nest for higher climbs
And there's nothing left behind

So when you talk listen more than you speak
And when you look, try to see
What's hidden in plain sight
Won't you recognise the symptoms of my plight

Won't you come comfort my soul?
Won't you talk away the tears?
You're so far from me yet still
I can feel you on my skin
'Cause no man is an island
But just sometimes
The water is all you see
But keep your feet on shore
