lyrics

Think of what we've lost--
laughter in the summer,
an unquestioned sense that we were one,
intuitive bonds,
little fragile jokes.
I can't talk to you now.
You can't talk to me.

Think of what we've lost.
We are not alone,
but we are--
We are speaking in tongues,
understanding nothing.

Tell me do you think that I am evil?
Tell me do you think that I'm naive?
I need you to know that I act out of love,
and I believe in compassion,
but I get so angry,
these days I'm always feeling angry.

Maybe I need space from where we're going,
and I need time to grieve for what we've lost,
but I believe you're wrong
and this is just too big to be quiet.
I can try to bite my tongue, but it's on fire.

(We are speaking in tongues,
understanding nothing)
