Song Lyrics

"Human Sound"

by Altar Boys
Album: Against The Grain

Go.

Listen, there's a mockingbird singing everyone's song,
Listen to the mockingbird singing everyone's song but yours,
You're not saying much anymore.

Did they understand what you were trying to say to them'
Should they know why you turned and ran'
Tell me what you mean,
Is the human sound just a scream'

Standing in an ocean of people all by themselves,
Listen, there's an ocean of people talking just to themselves,
And they're not saying much to nobody else.

All that they can make: the very same sound that babies make,
They very first time that they awake, who knows what they mean'
Is the human sound just a scream'

Tell me what you mean when you fell down to the floor,
Just what you were screaming for: for someone to listen,
Here, whisper something in my ear,
Tell me something and I'll understand.

Listen, they're all afraid of the first word, but they all want the last word 'cause they can't say what they mean, (tell me what you mean)
Is the human sound just a scream' (tell me, now don't scream)
Is the human sound just a scream' (tell me what you mean)
Is the human sound just a scream' (tell me, now don't scream)
Is the human sound just a scream' (tell me what you mean)
(tell me, now don't scream)
(tell me what you mean)
(tell me, now don't scream)
(tell me what you mean)
