Tell me a piece of your history that you're proud to call your own
Speak in words you picked up as you walked through life alone
We used to swim in your stories and be pulled down by their tide
Choking on the words and drowning with no air inside
Now you've hit the wall and it's not your fault
My dear, my dear, my dear
Now you've hit the wall and you've hit it hard
My dear, my dear, oh dear
It is not enough to be dumbstruck (Can you fill the silence?)
You must have the words in that head of yours
And oh, oh, can you fill the silence? I can't take it anymore
'Cause it is not enough to be dumbstruck (Can you fill the silence?)
Tell me a piece of your history that you've never said out loud
Pull the rug beneath my feet and shake me to the ground
Wrap me around your fingers, break the silence open wide
And before it seeps into my ears, it fills me up from the inside
Now you've hit the wall and you're lost for words
My dear, my dear, my dear
Now you've hit the wall and you've hit it hard
My dear, my dear, oh dear
It is not enough to be dumbstruck (Can you fill the silence?)
You must have the words in that head of yours
And oh, oh, can you fill the silence? I can't take it anymore
'Cause it is not enough to be dumbstruck (Can you fill the silence?)
If you give it a name, then it's already won
What you good for, what you good for?
If you give it a name, then it's already won
What you good for, what you good for?
If you give it a name, then it's already won
What you good for, what you good for?
If you give it a name, then it's already won
What you good for, what you good for?
It is not enough to be dumbstruck (Can you fill the silence?)
You must have the words in that head of yours
And oh, oh, can you fill the silence? I can't take it anymore
'Cause it is not enough to be dumbstruck, oh
