Lyrics
You said you are the ceiling I heard you are the floor I said I am the hinges You heard I am the door You said you are the hammer I heard you are the nail I said I am the rudder You heard I am the sail All words are like vapor Thin as wrapping paper Some are very thin Words are thin-skinned [Chorus] Each and every word comes with two sides We can either get the whole or choose to divide [Verse] I said I am the road You heard I am the tire You said you are the water But I heard you’re the fire And If you’re the red wine And I am the crystal glass Then why when I say iron You alway hear brass? Everyone’s got has a point of view And it don’t have to agree with you But if we listen to the core we don’t argue anymore I heard that I am a fool And you the hero And you heard I am the one And you the zero You think I am both ends When I think I am the middle You think you are the answer When I think you’re the riddle I’m an oscillating wave And you’re a floating particle When I’m speaking micro Your hearin’ astronomical [Chorus] Each and every word comes with two sides We can either see the whole Or choose to divide |
