    Today I did listen

    And I heard a new sound

    Twas the breaking of hearts

    Every time I come round

     

    Today I did listen

    Not like other days

    Not only for self

    But for some others pain

     

    Today I did listen

    And prayed for you all

    For all who had contact

    For all I had harmed

      

    Today I did listen

    With nothing to say

    I heard the unspoken

    I heard all the pain

     

    Today I did listen

    And I don’t like the sound

    But its I who create it

    And it’s always too loud
