 Intro
 Would you rather  be more than the things that you say?
 Or just  be the words that you sing to yourself in your head
 when nobody’s around.
 Or would you rather  be a part of the crowd  or just a single sound
 waiting to be heard.  Do you know what I mean?
 Oh you  could be one of the lovers or liars
Hiding  all the things that you do on the back of their hands
 Well it's just you and me
 Cause everybody's  got a little wrong  in all the right places
 Just depends on where you are  while you're hanging around
 Ba babababa babababab...
Dear  Mr. Quiet who's got so much to say
So  much more than all of the sleeping parade
 If I could tie up a string to your mouths and make you scream
 All of the things that you keep to yourself
 I'd love to get to know you better
 Dear Mr. Quiet I'd love to get to know you better
 When nobody's around
While  we're all staring at the end  of the world
 Will everybody  have their hands on their head while they say  well I told you so
 While everybody's  walking their own  way through the quiet crowd
 All thinking the same old things  if they only knew
