We speak and set ourselves apart
High words that boast and flail about
Beyond meaning from the very start
Hoping no one will ever find us out
If we chose the words we require
Then the message that we send
Would be received to inspire
Clearer understanding in a friend
But so it is from day to day
Our words can only take us so far
But everyone who has had their say
Still right here where they always are
