The Conversation Drops

lyrics by Anne-Marie Almedal

 

the conversation drops

they say he's gone too far

they say

if you don't stop

you'll end up breaking his heart

and he has seen it coming

he often meets this wall and

you've got no right at all

 

to cross this fragile line is like

burning every trail of friendliness

they say it's self defense

 

I can't believe it

is this as far as it goes

afraid it might reveal a little secret

they'd rather talk about cars and dogs

I can't believe it

 

the message is clear

in the way they frown upon him

they think

no doubt, we must be right

'cause he is only one

and we are much more

 

I can't believe it

is this as far as it goes

afraid it might reveal a little secret

they rather talk about cars and dogs

but of course I know what's going on

and I'm tired of having to fit in

and having to ignore the things I need to explore.
