about

I am. speechless. unable to articulate. at the best of times.

I am, the great Refuser.

lyrics

why, why, you rip me up and cut me down? oh why, why we chew it up but not spit it out... oh why…?
is this what i’m waiting for, the pieces picked up for me off the floor? when i want to scream but I never can! trapped in a shell like a deaf and blind man!
i have become the great refuser!
i have become a typical lie!
so why, why, you rip me up and cut me down. oh why, why we chew it up but not spit it out! oh why…?
so is this what we’ve been waiting for? tongue in cheek with my jaw on the floor. suffering some dead air!
aphasia, discrete and sudden defeat!
comin’ to grip with words unsaid, buzzing around inside my head, they stab and they stab, ya gifted gab.
seven hundred ‘n’ eighty three. learning again just how to speak my mind every time... again...
so why, why, you rip me up and cut me down. oh why, why we chew it up but not spit it out! oh why…?
