Silent Ignorance lyrics

Have you ever engaged someone in conversation

That seemed like a play that you watched

Sitting there patiently listening to each word

Perhaps a shake of the head or a yes

You have met Sam the Speaker, he listens not

For your thoughts are trivial to historical notes

Much like going to the movies and talking to the screen

After this narrative event is concluded

He inquires as to the reason for the silence

The intelligent thoughts forgotten in enduring spans

Can only bring silence to the listener with amnesia

Pardon my interest sir my silent ignorance
