Ellipsis

When we were all too shy
I looked inside the paper note in my pocket
A handmade design

Your note of hope aside
I watched your face
Crystallize as I dropped it
You'd know that I had read every word

You say you love
Or you want to say you need to
Tell me something

You didn't have to wait if you
Wanted to know my response
Two modern minds won’t say what they want to
To push a button in real time

Would you answer a call
When the hours are dark?
Knowing it was time to deliver
A message?

I can't tell from the signs
We're giving in our lines

Whittling our time
A symphony of vacancy
The wasted day is aging me

With nothing really to say

Two modern minds won't say what they want to
To push a button in real time with an undo
Two modern minds won't say what they want to
To push a button in real time with an undo
To push a button rewrite lies with an undo

And I watch you write
You're still saying nothing
And I watch you write
You're still saying nothing
And I watch you write
You're still saying nothing
And I watch you write
You're still saying nothing
Nothing at all
