Don’t know why
Don’t know why
Why poison doesn’t appease
Don’t know why
Why music doesn’t please
Seems all the same
But something’s changed
Love seems distant
Still at unease
The cans don’t clatter
The music’s stopped
Heart doesn’t chatter
Slowing down clock
Closer seems the edge
With every breath I take
Never close enough
Close enough to quit
The past keeps haunting
Present in trough
The future’s daunting
Roots raise brow
Verses don’t end
Darkness awake
Here’s another bend
n again I slew
Don’t know why..??
Don’t know why..!!
Second coming would be better
In this hope I die
Hanging from the umbilicalA wave away from eureka
A drop away from the flood
A phase from growing up
I can’t wait for the blood
Hold my hand I’m not that sure
Don’t give up on me
It just might cure
At least not now
Oh baby don’t go away
The nights are restless
The days silent
The words won’t come out
But the soul’s violent
On the edge
Still holding on
The tightrope’s cracking
N I walk alone
But I hang
N I haaaaaaaang
I’m hanging from the ummmmmmmmmmmbilical
I’m hanging from the umbilical aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Breaking almost free
The end’s yet to be
A day I hope to live to see
I’m hanging from the umbilical
I’m hanging from the umbilical oh yeaaaaah
--guitar leads--
She crosses way
Wherewithal Disarray
Crazed I still play
Plaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayeeeeeee yeaaah
The lamp’s still burning still going on
Belief still living
The lunacy gone
Next step’s the devil’s know
The devil knowwwwwwwwwwwws yeah
Still holding aaaaah
Still walking aaaaaaah
Still living aaaaaaaaaaaah
Still hanging on…
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanging from the umblical
