"Resolution" lyrics

"Resolution"

My antidote, my safety
My wishing well has betrayed me
Like a tree falling in the forest
When nobody is around
My words used to resonate
But now they don't make a sound

And when your keys are in the door
I wish I'd evaporate
And after all you've done

I have found no resolution
Knots I tied are still there
In the back of my mind
In the back of my mind
And I can talk for my brothers
And for my sisters
But only words can't clear the air
Only words don't make this better

I'm out of time, my rhythm's gone
I'm someone else, been playing too long
And while I'm running just to start again
I long to know
Is your body just a hollow shell or
Can you be whole

And when your keys are in the door
I wish I'd evaporate
And after all you've done

I have found no resolution
Knots I tied are still there
In the back of my mind
In the back of my mind
And I can talk for my brothers
And for my sisters
But only words can't clear the air
Only words

And as I get older I know
You wanted to guide me there
But I can hold you for just a second
Before you disappear

And when your keys are in the door

I have found no resolution
Knots I tied are still there
In the back of my mind
In the back of my mind
And I can talk for my brothers
And for my sisters
But only words can't clear the air
Only words don't make this better
