Speaking a Dead Language

Speaking A Dead Language

We built a tall, tall tower

Towards the sun, towards the sun

Took some words and built a wall

And called it love, called it love

And somewhere in all the talking

The meaning faded out

Oh, I wonder

When did it all stop making sense?

I don't understand

I remember we were so sure, so innocent

Oh, but that was then

Can we ever go back again?

Can we ever go back?

You're speaking a dead, dead language

You don't sound like yourself

I hope its just lost in translation

So why don't you show? Don't try to tell

And brick by brick we started crumbling

Will I find you when it falls?

Oh, I wonder

When did it all stop making sense?

I don't understand

I remember we were so sure, so innocent

Oh, but that was then

Can we ever go back?

Don't hold your breath

Look around

Try to add it up

Pin it down

But you can't

Oh, I wonder

When did it all stop making sense?

I don't understand

I remember we were so sure, so innocent

Oh, but that was then

Can we ever go back again?

Can we ever go back?
