Are they watching me? A hundred voices, none of them yours Your mouth moving, no words in my ears Everything hitting all at once Nothing landing at all Count the faces Watch the mouths Track the gestures Time the pauses My hands respond Three seconds late The conversation happens to me Not with me Never with me A hundred voices, none of them yours Your mouth moving, no words in my ears Everything hitting all at once Nothing landing at all
