Question the Answers
Forget about the questions, it’s the answers that keep me awake at night
Cos’ if the answers are solutions
Solutions to the issues bring conclusions to the problem
Meaning after the answers there’s nothing left to do
So if you are my answer to all of life’s questions
You see my dilemma dear
So let’s have a fight or two
So i can conjure up ways to make up with you
And let the fear that I might not wake up next to you
Motivate me to find more ways of pleasing you
So even if my answer is always you
The question becomes ways of loving you
Even though I may not have to prove to you
The way I feel about you
I want to make sure when the life is through
I’m sure I ended it with you
With a smile on your face
Your answer still being me, too
...
Let’s call a spade a spoon
Let’s dabble around with words so eloquently
Let’s call these caricatures, toons
And mask the way we feel with words that have no meaning
We can retreat to dreams and ambitions
Then evaluate our lives on words unspoken by others
Let’s take breaks from our lives and selves
And find meaning in little fistfuls of air
And in the end you’ll grow and become happy
While we try to connect the dots on how that became
And I’ll sit and write your life’s parody
Filled with all the things you were to scared to play
The easy route has always been best traveled
So why would our lives be any different
And as a gift of your life’s accomplishment
I’ll do the one thing you always dreamt to do
I’ll break my own heart into a thousand pieces
And baby you won’t feel a thing
