Can’t Make a Sound Songtext
von Elliott Smith

I have become a silent movie
The hero killed the clown
Can′t make a sound, can't make a sound
Can′t make a sound

Nobody knows what he's doing
Still hanging around
Can't make a sound, can′t make a sound
Can′t make a sound
Can't make a sound

The slow motion moves me
The monologue means nothing to me

Bored in a role, but he can′t stop
Standing up to sit back down
To lose the one thing found


Spinning the world like a toy top
'Til there′s a ghost in every town
Can't make a sound, can′t make a sound
Can't make a sound
Can't make a sound

Eyes locked and shining
Can′t you tell me what′s happening?

Why should you want any other
When you're a world within a world?
Why should you want any other
When you′re a world within a world?

Why should you want any other
When you're a world within a world?
Why should you want any other
When you′re a world within a world?
