Mute was based around this guitar piece Brent had, one night Rob, Brent and Frank sat around at low volume and came up with the parts (Frank banging on Brent’s coffee table as a drum), Rob had parts that fit, that was a new way to write a song for us. When Dickie got in the mix, the song came together after a few demo revisions. Frank Phobia wrote the lyrics to the song.
lyrics
MUTE
I’ve been informed, I talk way too much
I’ve been told my heart is too cold to touch
On the subject of my roots, I go mute
I disposed of the curiosities of my youth
But, you weren’t satisfied, satisfied
Guess you weren’t satisfied, satisfied?
But, you weren’t satisfied, satisfied
Guess you weren’t satisfied, satisfied?
Kid with kid, nowhere to run
Nothings more appealing, then the burden of a son
Baptizing water inquired, where’d I come from?
My dry mouth moved and whispered nothing from my tongue
Are you feeling satisfied, satisfied?
Are you feeling satisfied, satisfied?
Are you feeling justified, justified?
Are you feeling justified, justified?
No means no and yes is yes
It wasn’t up to you, to second guess
Buried between all the questions and the lies
Instant validity locked in our eyes
A truth unearthed as he sat there still in doubt
No right way to act
We just gotta figure it out
Are you feeling satisfied, satisfied
Bethcha feeling satisfied, satisfied?
Are you feeling justified, justified?
Betcha feeling justified, justified?
No means no and yes is yes
It wasn’t up to you, to second guess
On the subject of my roots, I go mute
I disposed of the questions of my youth
I’ll just keep my mouth shut and try to forget
So I don’t say something I might regret
Yes means yes and no means no
Certain situations you shouldn’t try to control
Like a bomb, strapped to my chest
It’s detonated, let’s see what’s left
Are you feeling satisfied?
Are you feeling justified?
