Pins Drop
Official now, gone deaf
My ears are out the door
Words no longer hurt me

Thrilled to airs of Mozart
Stood by when I was cruel
Inflicting a broken heart
Soaked up words of love
Tuned in to Radio One

Millenia of chords traversed that plastic portal
You left me deaf, my hearing aids get stronger
