Speak To Me

When you force a smile the crease in your cheeks is screaming denial
and your eyes give the warning signs
Thoughts they are soft they look both ways, hold hands as they cross
on the walk from your head to mine

So speak to me, speak to me, please will you speak to me
I want the words that will never come easily
that is the gold those are the ones we need
Be with me, be with me, please just be real with me
I know at times it is hard just to deal with me
if you don't speak I can't be by your side
and I'm all on my own, I'm all on my own, I'm all on my own

So here's where we choose we can run like the wind to chase down the truth
stay the same or learn how to change
strange how we care yeah honesty's always a bit unprepared
for the lights out on center stage

So speak to me, speak to me, please will you speak to me
I want the words that will never come easily
that is the gold those are the ones we need
Be with me, be with me, please just be real with me
I know at times it is hard just to deal with me
if you don't speak I can't be by your side
and I'm all on my own, I'm all on my own, I'm all on my own

So tell the guards to go home
we don't need them tonight
now that we're all alone
we can try and make this right
we can try and make this right
we can try and make this right
we can try so please just be with me, with me

Speak to me, speak to me, please will you speak to me
I want the words that will never come easily
that is the gold those are the ones we need
Be with me, be with me, please just be real with me
I know at times it is hard just to deal with me
if you don't speak I can't be by your side
and I'm all on my own, I'm all on my own, I'm all on my own oh yeah
