so much to say, the audience away

so much to say, the audience away,
i'm left with open mouth, no words come out
no one to hear, from me he's torn away

left speechless, open mouthed but every day
caught in the throat, my trouble's all about
so much to say, the audience away

he cannot hear from where he lay
and though i come so close and shout
no one to hear, from me he's torn away

transmission's stopped, reception's frayed
our circuit's broken, our live wire's torn out
so much to say, the audience away,

my frantic search around it shows no way
to reconnect, for this is not allowed
no one to hear, from me he's torn away

my agony's displayed in skies so gray
unfinished words will never more come out,
so much to say, the audience away,
no one to hear, from me he's torn away
