lyrics
“You’ve never been much of a talker”
Thank you for sparing me the shame
Because every time I try to speak
The attempt deforms my face
You see, it’s not very pretty
You shoved these words into my mouth
And now they keep on dripping over the sides
I try to wipe them with my sleeves
It sticks like filth to my cheeks
I’ve got this pile of identities
But I like the one you gave me best
I guess I’ll keep it as a souvenir
While I get rid of all the rest
You shoved these words into my mouth
And I chewed them down then spit them out
Like bite-sized syllables with a lack of meaning
You shove these words into my mouth
And I keep on chewing until they sound
A bit more like mine
It never speaks
And if it speaks
It speaks in fear
“You’ve never been much of a talker”
Thank you for sparing me the shame
Because every time I try to speak
The attempt deforms my face
You shoved these words into my mouth
And I chewed them down then spit them out
Like bite-sized syllables with a lack of meaning
You shove these words into my mouth
And I keep on chewing until they sound
A bit more like mine
It never speaks
And if it speaks
It speaks in fear
Thank you for sparing me the shame
Because every time I try to speak
The attempt deforms my face
You see, it’s not very pretty
You shoved these words into my mouth
And now they keep on dripping over the sides
I try to wipe them with my sleeves
It sticks like filth to my cheeks
I’ve got this pile of identities
But I like the one you gave me best
I guess I’ll keep it as a souvenir
While I get rid of all the rest
You shoved these words into my mouth
And I chewed them down then spit them out
Like bite-sized syllables with a lack of meaning
You shove these words into my mouth
And I keep on chewing until they sound
A bit more like mine
It never speaks
And if it speaks
It speaks in fear
“You’ve never been much of a talker”
Thank you for sparing me the shame
Because every time I try to speak
The attempt deforms my face
You shoved these words into my mouth
And I chewed them down then spit them out
Like bite-sized syllables with a lack of meaning
You shove these words into my mouth
And I keep on chewing until they sound
A bit more like mine
It never speaks
And if it speaks
It speaks in fear

Linea Aspera LP II
by Linea Asperasupported by 53 fans who also own “The Talker”
Thank you for the second album. Got all three now on Bandcamp and they inspire me so much. Kids in school, then work, and kids back from school - then baths and homework - AND FINALLY a bit of time in my cobbled together mini studio in my one bedroom flat. YOU inspire me to make the effort to make all that stuff work.
