Why does no-one hear a word I say?

There is no pain, you are receding
A distant ship's smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move, but I can't hear what you're saying
When I was a child, I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye
I turned to look, but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child has grown, the dream is gone
And I have become comfortably numb

Your profile picture makes that post really uncomfortable to read.
 
Maybe you're too quiet and you don't realize it. When I ask someone for someone, I always have to to raise my voice a little because I am that silent.
