Song For The Deaf

Queens Of The Stone Age · Songs For The Deaf [2002]

Nobody's coming down the hall

Nobody echoes in my head

Broken reflection out of luck

Nobody ever needed her



I got what was

I want to take what's left

For the deaf



Beautiful senses are gone

Canary in a gilded cage

Singin



Sweet, soft, and low

I will poison you all

Come closer, racing to your turn



I got what was

I want to take what's left

No talk will cure

What's lost, or save what's left

For the deaf



The blind can go get fucked

Lie beside the ditch

This halo round my neck

Has torn out every stitch



Who are you hiding

Is it safe for the deaf

Beautiful cancer

Infiltrate and forget

And I saw you coming

And I heard not a thing

A mistake not to listen

When I knew where you'd been



And I got what was

I want to take what's left

No talk will cure

What's lost, or save what's left

For the deaf
