Katie Buxton - Words Are Dead

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1389537
Verse 1
Somebody told me the other day
That stories don’t matter anymore
As long as people have a melody
They’ll sing words they’ve never even heard before

Well I thought I’d give a shot
Fill a song with nothing at all
See if people still listen
Or if they turn that hollow music off

Chorus
So there’s nothing in this chorus
Except empty words that don’t mean a thing
And how long will it take you to notice
Or are you just happy to have something to sing
Even if I choke
I wonder if anybody would know
Or if words are really dead

Verse 2
What if I told you the Earth was flat
Or read numbers from a telephone book
I bet you wouldn’t even question it
‘Cause this melody is so damn good

I’m sorta hopeful this isn’t true
‘Cause words can really change the world
But I guess I’ll take comfort in knowing that while the rhythm is there
I’ll at least have a few listeners

Chorus
So there’s nothing in this chorus
Except empty words that don’t mean a thing
And how long will it take you to notice
Or are you just happy to have something to sing
Even if I choke
I wonder if anybody would know
Or if words are really dead

Bridge
Da da da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da da

Da da da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da da

Chorus
So there’s nothing in this chorus
Except empty words that don’t mean a thing
And how long will it take you to notice
Or are you just happy to have something to sing
Even if I choke
I wonder if anybody would know
Or if words are really dead
