Give me a smile that doesn't sting in my eyes
Give me a kiss that doesn't taste like strawberries
Give me a handshake that isn't soft and lotioned
Give me a glance that says you're really here
Give me your time without me owing you mine
Lend me your ear make me believe you really hear
Give me your opinion, regardless of how you might think I may react
Tell me a story that will make me feel

Nothing I say, that I say, will ever matter
Nothing I do, that I do, will ever reach you
Nothing I say, that I say, will ever be listened to
Nothing I do, that I do, will make a difference

Give me a hug that doesn't smell like flowers
Give me an advice that I don't want to hear
Offer me a cigarette, even at times when you know I try to quit
Tell me I'm wrong when I try to explain

Nothing I say, that I say, will ever matter
Nothing I do, that I do, will ever reach you
Nothing I say, that I say, will ever be listened to
Nothing I do, that I do, will make a difference

We're so covered up in oil it's hard to find any friction in real life
Perhaps that's why so many constantly scream through a screen
