Clifton - Verbose (A Word in Edgewise) Lyrics

I'm listening, but I can't hear
Over the sound of my own voice
I'd like to say we harmonize
But I'm just adding to the noise

We're dining all alone
At a table set for two
Get a word in edgewise now
If you can make it through

I want to break the silence from
The endless void inside my chest
If only my lips could hold each
Other from what they do best

Cause we're dining all alone
At a table set for two
Get a word in edgewise now
If you can make it through

I string along these words and sounds
That feel so right inside my head
But never bring me peace of mind
Just pieces of my mind in shreds

And we're dining all alone
At a table set for two
Get a word in edgewise now
If you can make it
