[ti:The Mute] [ar:Radical Face] [al:Wish I Was Here (Music From The Motion Picture)] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]The Mute - Radical Face [00:22.23]Well as a child I mostly spoke [00:24.16]Inside my head [00:25.46] [00:27.47]I had conversations with the clouds [00:29.54]The dogs the dead [00:30.93] [00:32.77]And they thought my broken [00:34.08]That my tongue was coated lead [00:35.99]But I just couldn't make my words [00:38.25]Make sense to them [00:39.19] [00:40.53]If you only listen with your ears [00:42.89] [00:43.70]I can't get in [00:44.66] [00:49.10]And I spent my evenings pulling stars [00:51.27]Out of the sky [00:52.57] [00:54.53]And I'd arrange them on the lawn [00:56.58]Where I would lie [00:57.83] [00:59.93]And in the wind I'd taste the dreams [01:02.00]Of distant lives [01:03.04]And I would dress myself up [01:04.85]In them through the night [01:06.39] [01:07.73]While my folks would sleep [01:08.95]In separate beds [01:10.33] [01:12.74]And wonder why [01:14.23] [01:56.85]And through them days [01:57.91]I was a ghost atop my chair [02:00.35] [02:02.13]My dad considered me a cross [02:04.31]He had to bear [02:05.56] [02:07.55]And in my head I'd sing apologies [02:10.22]And stare [02:11.11]As my mom would hang [02:12.33]The clothes across the line [02:14.14] [02:15.06]And she would try to keep [02:16.52]The empty from her eyes [02:19.75] [02:23.44]So then one afternoon [02:25.07]I dressed myself alone [02:27.01] [02:29.22]I packed my pillowcase with [02:30.86]Everything I owned [02:32.56] [02:34.62]And in my head I said goodbye [02:36.72]Then I was gone [02:38.12]And I set out on the heels [02:40.02]Of the unknown [02:41.24] [02:42.46]So my folks could have a new life [02:44.57]Of their own [02:45.84] [02:46.83]And that maybe [02:47.57]I could find someone [02:49.61] [02:50.23]Who could hear the only words [02:52.29] [02:53.29]That I'd known
