Listen - Collective Soul

I'm a bit angry with myself for almost forgetting how much I fucking love Collective Soul







You're now thirsty
Walking in the desert all alone
You're now searching
Lost in isolation from your soul

When the bullets you bite
From the pain you request
You're finding them harder to digest
When the answers you seek
Are the ones you destroy
Your anger's well deployed

Why can't you listen
Why can't you hear
Why can't you listen
As love screams everywhere

You now hunger
Feeding your mind with selfishness
You now wander
Aimlessly around your consciousness

When your prophecies fail
When your thoughts become weak
Silence creates necessity
And you're clothing yourself
With the shields of despair
Your courage now impaired

Why can't you listen
Why can't you hear
Why can't you listen
As love screams everywhere

You crucify
All honesty
No signs you see
Do you believe
And all your words
Just twist and turn
Reviving just to crash and burn
You're fighting till
The bitter end
If only your heart could
Open ...
... Up and ...
... Listen

Why can't you listen
Why can't you hear
Why can't you listen
As love screams everywhere

Why can't you listen
Why can't you hear
Why can't you listen
As love screams everywhere
