Words Fail Me Meaning
[Well I woke up this morning with a head full of noise Down with all the channels the media employs A thesaurus for breakfast and a long list of aims Had to make a comment on the fun and games All sweeping statements, fine sentiments Like the decline and fall of the Occident All eloquence and persuasiveness Poets seem to say much more with less All the beauty of life and nature’s wealth “Is judged with all the blindnеss of life itself” So invest in your daughters, educate your sons Give them real weapons and not just guns Well I could wring my hands, I could pace the floor I f I could write a letter or file a report In a world of deception and loathsome lies The disregarded mob now have hate in their eyes And I want to condemn them, want to make it fair A silent scream as you punch the air Words fail me Well I wrote this song under a supermoon It’s a romantic image, doesn’t need this tune But I need these words and these words need this song To find a place where we both belong But I keep on trying though the work is hard Couldn’t even write a decent get well card For a stricken world with all its ills and pain All your best intentions locked inside your brain Words fail me, words fail me Words fail me, words fail me , So here we are at the close of play Seems like I’ll live to write another day So what’s the point? Well the point is “mute” It’s up in the attic with me marching boots Course it’s not all bad, some of it’s worse Some of it even comes chapter and verse From a holy book that doesn’t help me at all Better things written on a factory wall Words fail me, words fail me Words fail me, words fail me Well they just fail me because they’re just lines on a page Predictable text for the digital age They fail me because they don’t make things clear They’re just hot air falling on deaf ears They fail me because in the end they’re just words When talk is cheap, mighty seems the sword Where to now for democracy? A new dark chapter in our history? For all the arrogance and ignorance Couldn’t even make a coherent response When you have to fight to have your say But all your fine words are just filled away To say just what I think and to shout it out Isn’t that what all this should be about? When your voice is ignored and your pleas are rejected Your opinion unheeded and your views neglected , All lyrical and ebullient Was meaning to write you but then it went All the times you came up with a good excuse For all the suffering, misery, hate and abuse All oppressive nouns and syllable stress Need to get out more, think less And they fail me now when I need to prevail When all I need is a hammer and nails The exploitation of the power games All the evil done in whoever’s name In the face of all this bigotry It’s not who they love or how they pray I grapple with my frustration and ineptitude And hide behind the words of a chosen few All indignation and deep disgust A tirade or a rant? Well go on if you must] |
