Blue October – The Answer lyrics

Album: Consent to Treatment

If I can't crawl inside of you,
I'm laughing with a broken face
I stumble across my self esteem.
But to picture the pleasure is making me want my space.

Understand.......
That God wrapped you like a bow.
But in my head...
There's some shelves that need cleaning,
from basement to ceiling, control.

If what you're seeing is an open book,
that's great 'cuz I'm an open book,
a confused boy.

I'm an automatic steeple for depressed and
lonely people.
My heart while in it's cage, is used to give and not
receive a thing.
But the only funny thing is that I don't know how to
give myself advice.

I've got this post dramatic thig.
I've got this tattoo of a ring that lies
around my wedding finger and that's where I want to
state this claim.
"That I've got to learn to live and dream
before I go and get myself in love"

In love.

There's Zoloft, Welbutrin, there's Paxil that's proven,
no side effects.
But the rest left unnamed 'cuz they'd work like a charm
on me

But when your savings is drying.
you can;t stop from crying.
You've got to suck it up.
You're not her buttercupp,
you're not her favorite book.
