Message 599139 - Posted: 5 Jul 2007, 17:49:18 UTC

Usually I prefer to be a listener rather than a talker. And there are also times when I am occupied elsewhere, so that it appears that I am not talking much, but I'm still there to listen. At other times I pretend to listen, since I'm not interested in hearing what's being said. And sometimes I just can't get a word in.

What makes you like to talk?

I don't like to talk because most people don't like to listen... However, I really do enjoy typing... ;)

Missing Persons - Words

Do you hear me
Do you care
Do you hear me
Do you care

My lips are moving and the sound's coming out
The words are audible but I have my doubts
That you realize what has been said
You look at me as if you're in a daze
It's like the feeling at the end of the page
when you realize you don't know what you just read

What are words for when no one listens anymore
What are words for when no one listens
What are words for when no one listens it's no use talkin at all

I might as well go up and talk to a wall
'cause all the words are having no effect at all
It's a funny thing am I all alone

Something has to happen to change the direction
What little filters through is giving you the wrong impression
It's a sorry state I say to myself

What are words for when no one listens anymore
What are words for when no one listens
What are words for when no one listens it's no use talkin at all

Do you hear me
Do you care
Do you hear me
Do you care

Let me get by
Over your dead body
Hope to see you soon
When will I know
Doors three feet wide with no locks open
Walking always backwards in the faces of strangers
Time could be my friend
But it's less than nowhere now
less than nowhere now
less than nowhere now
now
ow ow ow

Pursue it further and another thing you'll find
Not only are they deaf and dumb they could be going blind and no one notices
I think I'll dye my hair blue

Media overload bombarding you with action
It's getting near impossible to cause distraction
Someone answer me before I pull out the plug

What are words for when no one listens anymore
What are words for when no one listens
What are words for when no one listens it's no use talkin at all

What are words for when no one listens anymore
What are words for when no one listens
What are words for when no one listens it's no use talkin at all

Do you hear me
Do you care
Do you hear me
Do you care
tell me what are words for
Do you hear me
tell me what are words for
Do you care
tell me what are words for
Do you hear me
so tell me what are words for
Do you care
so tell me what are words for
Do you hear me
tell me what are words for
so tell me what are words for
Do you care
so tell me what are words for
Do you hear me
tell me what are words for
so tell me what are words for
Do you care
so tell me what are words for

;)

Have you noticed....


Empty vessels make the most noise.





How're you doing tonight, Keith?

Yes, I've noticed. My blood vessels are very thin on blood this evening. It crackles when I walk.

Maybe I've had too much booze, or maybe I've been Vamped. LOL

Because people might notice me and might think "Wow. just listen that guy. He can talk."

Or maybe they say something completely different. Or nothing at all. Maybe the sun don't shine after all :(

What makes you like to talk?


I don't like talking much but I know I have so much to say.

It took me a long time in my little life to talk out loud.. Somtimes I wish I hadn't... but occasionally sometimes someone of good heart hears me...

When that happens I know exactly why I like to talk.

Hi cRuncy, it's good that people hear you. But it's also good that they listen to what you have to say, rather than just like the sound of their own voices, don't you think?
