Lyrics
I want to know, want to know what
The trick of this, the trick of this
I want to know, want to know
Yesterday’s regrets and the day before too
Are invading the space that you normally do
My manic obsessions, they overwhelm you
Like when day finally gives into night
Meaningless words, yea they spill out my mouth
a saucer of secrets, that nobody wants
But Ill ask a question that forever haunts
Like a ghost that appears in your dream
I want to know, want to know what
The trick of this, the trick of this
Life is
When the sun slips away, before the sky goes to gray
I’ll empty a bottle, you’ll empty a grave
And I’ll dip my toes, hell I might even wade
Maybe I’ll swim with the fishies again
But when I come up for air, you are standing right there
A towel in one hand and a loving death stare
you wrap me so tight, I am not insecure
For the first time since the day I was born
I want to know, want to know what
The trick of this, the trick of this
Life is so meaningless
But what to do I know?
I’m just a nobody that nobody knows
Life is so beautiful
But what to do I know?
I’m just a nobody that nobody knows
