Slick Shoes - Silence

Now I have always wondered.How can I stand upon your shoulders,look around and around and round and not see a thing?It always seemed confusing.Your jokes are never amusing.You can talk, talk, talk and not say a thing.We could fall below and never make a sound.The truth is frightening now.Will we ever get out?You always try to listen and for that gift I feel threatened.By the high esteem I hold you, it hurts so much.I wipe the dust off of my face.It all that left of my dreams misplaced.I find it hard to believe you could take much more.
