Blue October (UK) - "The Answer" lyrics
Oh
If I can’t crawl inside of you
I’m laughing with a broken face
I stumble across my self-esteem
But your picture of pleasure is making me want my space
That God wrapped you like a bow
Understand
But in my head theres some shelves that need cleaning
Control
From basement to ceiling
If what you’re seeing is an open book
Well I’m an open book
That’s great,
But I’m real shy
Now there’s a part of me seeking
And desperately needing to open up
That’s strange
Cuz I’m an open book
A confused boy
I’m an automatic steeple
For depressed and lonely people
My heart while in its cage
Is used to give and not receive a thing
I've got this post-dramatic thing
But the only funny thing is
That I don’t know how to give myself advice
That lies around my wedding finger
If I can’t crawl inside of you
I’m laughing with a broken face
I stumble across my self-esteem
But your picture of pleasure is making me want my space
That God wrapped you like a bow
Understand
But in my head theres some shelves that need cleaning
Control
From basement to ceiling
If what you’re seeing is an open book
Well I’m an open book
That’s great,
But I’m real shy
Now there’s a part of me seeking
And desperately needing to open up
That’s strange
Cuz I’m an open book
A confused boy
I’m an automatic steeple
For depressed and lonely people
My heart while in its cage
Is used to give and not receive a thing
I've got this post-dramatic thing
But the only funny thing is
That I don’t know how to give myself advice
That lies around my wedding finger
I've got this a tattoo of a ring
And that’s where I want to state this claim
That I got to learn to live and dream
in love
Before I go and get myself in love
Before, before I go and get myself in love
There’s Zoloft, Wellbutrin, theres Paxil thats proven
But the rest left unnamed
no side effects
But when your savings is drying
You can’t stop from crying
Cuz they work like a charm for me
You've got to suck it up
You’re not her favorite book
You’re not her butter cup
And I’m an automatic steeple
For depressed and lonely people
My heart while in its cage
is used to give and not receive a thing
But the only funny thing is
I've this post-dramatic thing
That I don’t know how to give myself advice
I've got this tattoo of a ring
That lies around my wedding finger
And that’s where I want to state this claim
Before I go and get myself in love
That I got to learn to live and dream
In love
Before, before I go and get myself in love
And that’s where I want to state this claim
That I got to learn to live and dream
in love
Before I go and get myself in love
Before, before I go and get myself in love
There’s Zoloft, Wellbutrin, theres Paxil thats proven
But the rest left unnamed
no side effects
But when your savings is drying
You can’t stop from crying
Cuz they work like a charm for me
You've got to suck it up
You’re not her favorite book
You’re not her butter cup
And I’m an automatic steeple
For depressed and lonely people
My heart while in its cage
is used to give and not receive a thing
But the only funny thing is
I've this post-dramatic thing
That I don’t know how to give myself advice
I've got this tattoo of a ring
That lies around my wedding finger
And that’s where I want to state this claim
Before I go and get myself in love
That I got to learn to live and dream
In love
Before, before I go and get myself in love
