Karate

Dont say a word Not because I know what you mean Not because Ive heard you say this before But in this semblance of Democracy Its like vacuum for what you overheard Dont say a word Dont call me back Not because Im busy watching TV on my day off And you might startle me with rational words Contradicting all the things that Ive heard So dont call me back Now a word is tense and bare Like a trigger just a hair away from being pulled You know I cant pretend to know how this is going to end But dont you feel like youre being fooled? Yet you dont say a word Are you at work? I called this morning but I guess I was late Now were both waiting for the day that the dreams wane With possibilities permanently sealed Atrophied after their purpose revealed: To keep you at work Have you gone out? I called but the place was too loud Cacophony, I coulnt make out If you wanted me over tonight Another private tease as sense comes by daylight? Or we could go out Nouns pass for narration and camp sights for nations But youre just driving out of range You struggle with phone, but it doesnt matter, Im not home Besides, Ive got nothing to say Dont say a word
