DEDICATION: For D.

NOTES:

First of all, it was a thrill when this hit #1 Worldwide this morning. Of course its reign there was brief -- yet some of the best things in life are just the same.

Meanwhile, when I came up with this rough idea a couple weeks ago, it sounded like the opening track on an EP to me. So -- I wanted to go and quietly write that whole thing, and then release it all.

However, the mothership suddenly came up with this credits contest, which threw me into a chicken-or-egg-first situation... Because of course I could use those credits to finish that little project. So -- here we are right now and -- no regrets!

Words can pass as if water through hands

Tongue, it twists like the wind in foreign lands

Chasing anger, tossed in our storm

Ev’ry sound is feeling broken

Ev’ry phrase, deformed

Scream it loud though no one hears

Waiting heart without reply

Verses burn, they cloud, they clear

Shattered regret hangs in my sky

Letters gather like leaves on my floor

Gestures pack yet they never reach your door

Words are birds on endless flights

My noise, your silence, it bites

Scream it loud though no one hears

Waiting heart without reply

Verses burn, they cloud, they clear

Shattered regret hangs in my sky....

Whoa, oh, oh.... Oh.

Tone-deaf minds won't own their shame

Words are smoke, when made by flames

Pencils may scrape the edge of truth

While wildfires devour any proof

Scream it loud though no one hears

Waiting heart without reply

Verses burn, they cloud, they clear

Shattered regret hangs in my sky

Words they pass as if water through hands

Tongue, it's twisting like wind in foreign lands

Chasing anger, lost in our storm

Ev'ry sound stays broken

Ev'ry phrase, deformed

Words....
