Listen

Well I live too loud and I talk too much
But somehow I don’t see it as such
Seems like what I love the most
Is the sound of my own voice

I pray my list and I say my piece
I check You off but I’m incomplete
Seems like what I’m missing most
Is the sound of Your voice
[02:04.35][01:23.82][00:35.20]
[02:07.26][01:24.16][00:35.61]So why is it so hard for me
[02:09.94][01:26.78][00:38.23]To shut my mouth and let you speak
[02:12.52][01:29.33][00:40.86]Why do I feel the need to always keep on talking
[02:16.91][01:34.84][00:46.27]Well I know I need to hear from You
[02:20.73][01:37.57][00:49.07]I know what I have got to do
[02:23.23][01:40.20][00:51.77]To find what I’ve been missing
[01:44.15][00:55.64]I’ve got to learn to listen
[01:47.06][00:58.52]
A wise man hears before he speaks
He knows he doesn’t know everything
I wish that sounded more like me
But I have got so far to go

Why is my first reaction
To give my own opinion
Like I could tell You something
You don’t already know
