Answer Man

(album: Musical Chairs - 1998)

You must retreat now
I just can't talk anymore
Your words make me empty inside
There's nothing left of you

Time seems to change
Thoughts I have for you
Now I'm so alive
But you seem to be
Drowning every minute

I say that's life
You say it's alright

I can't be your answer and
I don't want to follow you
Into your cloud

I am tired of being the one
To live and learn from your mistakes
I'm just so sick of my mind

It sees us like a light
Shining bright
In the middle
Don't you see us smiling now

You say that's life
I say it's alright

[CHORUS]

Please open your eyes
See where you sleep tonight
I hope you never call it home
But your bound to live bound to die in it
You say that's life
I say I'll still be here

[CHORUS]
