We Used To Talk

We used to talk
 Enough to fill an ocean
 Full of sailors who were going
 To some undiscovered place
 And we talked
 About a storm that's growing
 But we'd survive it knowing
 We'd keep each other safe
 Like the waves
 That wash away
 The footprints on the shore
 We used to talk a lot
 But we don't talk much anymore
 We used to talk
 Enough to fill a million books
 With page after page
 With inspirational thoughts
 And we talked
 About all the scenarios
 Where we could be the heroes
 Adventuring evil plots
 It's what we don't expect
 And what we choose to ignore
 We used to talk a lot
 But we don't talk much anymore
 How long
 Can these conversations go wrong
 Before the inspiration is gone
 Even Atlantis sunk onto the ocean floor
 We used to talk a lot
 But we don't talk much anymore
 We used to talk
 Now in a hundred years
 We would still be sitting here
 Just to chatter in our poems
 We're not
 I'm sitting here in silence
 And though I have tried
 It is hard to talk alone
