lyrics

Staring at the floor, watching time float by
(Fill me up) Once again I'm running dry.
Lock the door, bar the gate, and close the blinds
Throw away the key but open up our minds.

Not sure where to go or what I see.
I don't know why the little things always bother me.
Please don't stand there, stare square, make me quizzical.
I can't tell if my statement's a request or a plea.

Day and night we mortify our destiny,
But what's the point in losing to uncertainty?
Stop and go, remember where we all began
Let's all find the better things while we still can.

I took a trip and swam across the ocean in my head;
I nearly sank a ship with half the words I said.
Why do people need an explanation for everything?
Who's to say I'm not content with imagining?

Someone once asked me what went wrong;
I turned to reply as if I'd known it all along.
The words choked, my train of thought had been de-railed
And I'm still dying for that answer.
