lyrics

i’ve worked hard for my solitude
can’t just give it up, hand it over to you
so the moment passes and i’m still standing still
been trying all these times but i’ve had my fill

it’s a failure to finish off every page in the past
keeps on coming, keeps coming right on back
it’s all of these best laid plans
and how they penetrate
every hand i try and hold
hold up to the light
somehow never fits, never fits quite right
think i’ll be making my way back out again tonight

it’s a weight to carry, and i won’t
it’s a lead to bury, and i don’t
it’s a weight to carry, and i won’t
it’s a lead to bury, and i don’t

can you feel the restlessness that burns in me?
it’s a fire that flickers deep
am you just the flame to my gasoline,
and i wanna know
what could you have ever expected of me?
where exactly did you think this would lead?
we could travel a million days on a million streets
and still you see, oooh, you see
how the feeling, how it escapes from me

i’ve worked hard for my solitude,
don’t think i’ll be handing it over to you
