You start a conversation, you can't even finish it
You're talking a lot, but you're not saying anything
When I have nothing to say, my lips are sealed
Say something once, why say it again?
In pubs sometimes people say things and sometimes it’s the whisky talking. It’s hard to tell which is which.
'Cause I'm tired of all this talking
'Cause everything you hear is empty words.
But who am I, oh to say this
'Cause everything you hear is just words, yeah.

— You don't have to be afraid of silence, Clementine. Constantly talking isn't necessarily communicating.
— I don't do that. I want to know you. I don't constantly talk. Jesus. People have to share things. That's what intimacy is. I'm really pissed that you said that to me.
— I'm sorry. I just don't have anything very interesting about my life.
