Muted Voices, I don't hear them anymore
I got your letter, can't say when 'll write back for sure
my feet are tired, my boots they weigh more than before
i'll have you know , it's been better but i'll still move forward
I see them talking , but i can't decipher a word
my wallet is crying , i'de buy you things but haven't you heard
the echoes are fading they move right beyond my ears
well you've been insightful , you've scared away all of my fears
meet me on the path , when the snow melts
take me to the end of the world , where we can watch the river flow
and when the trees begin to bloom , you can whisper me a tune
Well you've been tying my tongue in a thousand knots
well you've been tying a piece of string to my heart
carefully carrying it around so it won't get shot
carefully untangling my hair so it won't get caught
Muted Voices, I don't hear them anymore
I sent a letter , can't say if you'll get it for sure
My feet have lifted , the souls of my boots have worn
i'll have you know , it's getting better i got my foot out the door
