Talkers

[Verse 1]
I was not patient, I was not slow
It was an accident, I didn't know
I was not here as I thought I'd be
Yet I was alive, however unlikely
Listening to the talkers
All snarling and wise

[Verse 2]
I was not nothing, I was not air
I breathed a deep breath, free from care
I was an angle beside the void
Yet in the absence I was employed
Listening to the shouters
All echoey and soft

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
I was not simple, I was not smart
It was an accident, my aching heart
I wasn't angered, somehow I wasn't mean
The earth was burning, a rumbling scream
Listening to the dreamers
All asking for nothing much

[Instrumental Outro]
