they don't think about talking to us because we're different
so show them just how extremely different we are
we get drunk for the taste of the liquor on our lips
and stoned for the sight of the smoke in the lights of a car

a word passes through them like a bullet through a spiderweb
they explode to the point of no repair
we absorb the words like water in a sponge
we know it's true, so why despair?

they worry so much about their image
but give no thought to their minds
they think we're the emotionless ones
when they're the ones who've closed the blinds
