  1. [Intro: Stephen Hawking]
    For millions of years mankind lived just like the animals
    Then something happened which unleashed the power of our imagination
    We learned to talk

    [Verse 1: David Gilmour]
    There’s a silence surrounding me
    I can’t seem to think straight
    I’ll sit in the corner
    And no one can bother me
    I think I should speak now (Why won’t you talk to me?)
    I can’t seem to speak now (You never talk to me)
    My words won’t come out right (What are you thinking?)
    I feel like I’m drowning (What are you feeling?)
    I’m feeling weak now (Why won’t you talk to me?)
    But I can’t show my weakness (You never talk to me)
    I sometimes wonder (What are you thinking?)
    Where do we go from here (What are you feeling?)

    [Refrain: Stephen Hawking]
    It doesn’t have to be like this
    All we need to do is make sure we keep talking

    [Verse 2: David Gilmour]
    (Why won’t you talk to me?) I feel like I’m drowning
    (You never talk to me) You know I can’t breathe now
    (What are you thinking?) We’re going nowhere
    (What are you feeling?) We’re going nowhere
    (Why won’t you talk to me?)
    (You never talk to me)
    (What are you thinking?)
    (Where do we go from here?)

    [Refrain: Stephen Hawking]
    It doesn’t have to be like this
    All we need to do is make sure we keep talking

    Too lazy to count the number of words in this song. In case of urgent need, it would probably be possible to leave exactly one hundred.

    “Keep Talking” was inspired by a TV program in which the famous astrophysicist Stephen Hawking, who was confined to a wheelchair and unable to speak due to a nervous system disease, demonstrated his computer voice synthesizer. Gilmore was struck by the scientist's desire for self-expression.
    “I almost cried,” Dave recalls. “It was the most powerful TV commercial I've ever seen.”
    Gilmore decided to use Hawking's electronic voice on the track as a symbol of people's need for communication.

  2. I would have saved them for a life-and-death emergency. Otherwise, I would just write by hand or type the text. Important things can be written, and sometimes even better written, so as not to confuse anything. But in an extreme situation, reading time does not wake up.
