Words they don't mean as much
When spoken without a taste or touch of
How I felt for you (for you)

So I let them leave my mouth
Not knowing that sticks and stones
Will break your bones and words will too
Ooh
Calling out your name

When will I begin to learn?

Calling out your name
You're not listening listening

I'm calling out your name
But I'm better off listening

Better off better off better off listening
Better off better off better off listening

Words, they are sharp as knives
Spoken with just a touch or taste of love you thought was true
Hmm

I'm listening inside my box
Hiding away my thoughts to tell you
"I still want to" could scare me to do it alone

Life won't be simple as just rewinding time in tune
If you've wanted to
I'm still wanting you

Calling out your name
You're not listening listening

I'm calling out your name
But I'm better off listening

Calling out your name
Are you listening listening

I'm calling out your name
But I'm better off listening

Can't find the courage
Convincing myself
It's all for the better
It's all for the best
The road we have struggled
Pretending has led me to find you
Find you

Calling out your name
I'm still listening listening

Calling out your name
If you are still listening

Calling out your name
I'm still listening listening

I'm calling out your name
If you are still listening

Calling out your name
Calling out your name

(Better off better off listening)
