I Can't Hear You

I'm still standing all alone, but upright still
& I wonder what do you think about it
Did you get what you wished for?
Was it as much a disaster 

as you made it out to be?
& you know that I can't read you
You're not a short story 

as much as you'd like it to be
& I won't change
I'm not like the weather 

as much as I'd like to be

It's true, you know that 

I can't hear you when you say
"Our words they come out wrong"
It's true, you know that 

you can't hear me when I say
"Our worlds they come apart"
