I've always tried
To read between all the lines
Sometimes I found the truth
Other times the lie inside
How different we are
When it comes to the past
Some try to remember
Others determined to forget
Minor tragedies
Seem to take their toll on me
Common tribulation
Seems to wear these holes in me
Spent all my money
Like earning it was no chore
Spent all my time
Like I'd always find some more
Although I'm older
I just might be wiser too
One day I'll figure out
What it is I'm supposed to do
Universe inside of me
Prisoner with no parole
Black hole inside of me
Wanting to swallow me whole
I'm only half a man
From the day that I was born
First I hid and then I ran
So much from me has been torn
Waves kept throwing me
Against all your rocky shores
Usually the thing I found
Wasn't what I was looking for
Not what I was looking for
Not what I was looking for
Not what I was looking for
Not what I was looking for
Not what I was looking for
Not what I was looking for
