I wish you would listen
I wish you would listen to the words
no sense in wishing
no sense in wishing for the world
anymore
the scene is shifting
the scene is shifting to somewhere else
it gleams and glistens
shining right up off of yourself
in your hand
chorus
| B- | D | A | E |
when I know I'll tell you all myself
when you know don't post it on a wall or text it out
'cause I can't hear it, I can't feel it, I can't sense the rhythm
| B- | D |
how will you know
| A | D | A | D |
if you don't listen anymore

I wish you would talk
I wish I could hear the tone in your voice
crack in your throat
shrug in your shoulder when you don't know
anymore
the seeds are growing
the seeds are growing into a brave new world
with fingers flying
flying faster than the speed of sound
in your palm
chorus

used to be
that everyone had a song to sing
seems to me
that everyone's one their phone too long
to hear
I wish you would listen
I wish you would listen to your heart
feel it beat
feel it beat in every man
in time
chorus
