lyrics

All the things that you say to me
sink like water thrown stones
stupid words that I must swallow
smile and nod and leave alone
but I'm not listening
I'm not listening
I'm not listening
I'm not listening anymore

your mouth moves
a fish that's hunting
for a smaller fish to kill
eat your dinner
drink your coffee
go to bed and take a pill
but I'm not listening
I'm not listening
I'm not listening anymore
I'm not listening
I'm not listening
I'm not listening anymore

Dark clouds always seem to follow you
I guess they have a job that they must do
You never seem to see the moon, her glory or her light
You never notice fireflies or dragonflies in flight
and all the flowers in the spring, they wilt from your disdain
but I belong to all of them so this is my refrain.
I'm not listening anymore.

I'm tired of your sad song
I'm cannot sing along
and I'm tired of your selfish ways
that make me feel wrong
you shadow makes it hard to see
I think your darkness is afraid of me
It keeps begging for my sympathy
but I'm not listening
I am not listening
I am not listening anymore.
