The Lonely Forest - Lessons in Miscommunication, Pt. 1 Lyrics
(Concept: The lonely hero)Look at me, an awful mess.I try to breathe but I must confess.They say that I'm seeing the world when I'm here at home.I make a call to reach a friendBut you're never there so I pretendthat you're with me and having a laughBut it just won't do. It isn't true.Here alone with my thoughtsSo I get stoned and shake it off.But it squeezes the life from my bonesand I feel unknown.They look at me and they don't tryAnd I feel as though I can't stay at all.Just give me a chance to make you laughAnd I'll leave at once.They always read, read me wrong.Assuming that I, I am always gone.But honestly friend all I want is to spend some time with you.In my room with a record on,It comforts me to hear Bazan.He translates feelings to songAnd I sense his pain,It stays with me.Do you know my words are true?Can I sing my song for you?Listen close cause I'm spilling my heart for the first time.They look at me and they don't tryAnd I feel as though I can't stay at all.Just give me a chance to make you laughAnd I'll leave at once.They always read me wrong.Assuming that I am always gone.But honestly friend all I want is to spend some time with you.I cannot say everything on my mind!I cannot say everything!So I swallow the pill you give me.They look at me and they don't tryAnd I feel as though I can't stay at all.Just give me a chance to make you laughAnd I'll leave at once.They always read, read me wrong.Assuming that I, I am always gone.But honestly friend all I want is to spend some time with you.I cannot say everything on my mind!I cannot say everything!So I swallow!
