Constant Chatter

Nothing's good the world's turned bad
Words once spoken just drives you mad
Thoughts of tomorrow simply fly away
Turn your back on what I have to say

You gave the best you made the grade
But now you want proof before it fades
We fought so hard to get this far
But words aren't enough to hide the scars

And when there's nothing left to lose
In the dead of night it's how we choose
Your constant chatter won't let me sleep
Ask me again tomorrow or even next week

Words that rattle like wind on window panes
Keep me awake when I'm feeling drained
I've given you more than I have to give
And I only have one life to live

Now you tell me over and over again
What's the point of love without a refrain
And no matter what I say it's wrong
I'd rather sleep than just tag along

And when there's nothing left to lose
In the dead of night it's how we choose
Your constant chatter won't let me sleep
Ask me again tomorrow or even next week

And when there's nothing left to lose
In the dead of night it's how we choose
Your constant chatter is payment due...
