Words... 

My lips are moving and the sound is coming out 
The words are audible but I have my doubts 
That you realize what has been said 
You look at me as if you're in a daze 
It's like th efeeling at the end of the page 
When you realize you don't know what you've just read 

I might as well go up and talk to a wall 
'Cause all the words are having no effect at all 
It's a funny thing...am I all alone? 
Something has to happen to change the direction 
What little filters through is giving you the wrong impression... 
It's a sorry state 
I say to myself... 

What are words for 
When no one listens anymore? 
What are words for 
When no one listens there's no use talking at all 

Pursue it any further and another thing you'll find 
Not only are they deaf and dumb 
They could be going blind 
No one notices...I think I'll dye my hair blue 

Media overload bombarding you with action 
It's getting near impossible to cause a distraction 
Someone answer me...before I pull out the plug 

Do you hear me? 
Do you care? 

Tell me what are words for?
