Speak - Ben Abraham Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I didn't hear you enter but I know you have been circling my room
I listen for your footsteps, close my eyes and wait for you to move
You're hiding like a memory, teasing like a girl I used to know
You're tumbling and gamboling, calling to the weakness in my soul

[Chorus]
Telling me to speak

[Verse 2]
And in one reckless moment you move a little too close to my ear
I grab a hold with both hands and scramble to make sense of what I hear
I try to tie you down with synonyms and sad piano sounds
For a moment you surrender, one moment we both stand on the same ground

[Chorus]
And I begin to speak

[Verse 3]
And all at once you pull away but I'm lost within your atmosphere
As quickly as you found me I panic as you try to disappear
I reach out with my fingers and try to pull the letters back in line
Your words spin out of order and the pounding in my chest is out of time

[Chorus]
And I just want to speak
