lirik lagu question – 8stops7
ever since i was a child
you always said that i should understand the rules
you take some and give less
sit high above the rest, don’t you?
as i ask a simple question
cuts me off with his reply
he’s been practicing for decades
and now he thinks i have the time
he flows in and out of riddles
looking me straight in the eye
but it seems like something’s missing
from these days when he was more my size
ten years older and i’ve finally found my pride
this old man comes rolling home to die
old feelings make it hard to decide
just what it means to me
everything exists ‘tween black and white
you can twist and distort the most blatant of lies
or just offer up solutions
practiced only in mind
i’ve lost half my life to wisdom
so forgive me if i come off sounding bitter
if my words push you away
if i seem surprised to see you lying here, in front of me
just consider what you’re asking
and give me a little time
’cause i’m still having trouble breathing
’cause that you know i, i’ve never seen you cry
ten years older and i’ve finally found my pride
but this old man comes rolling home to die
old feelings make it hard to decide
just what it means to me
no son of mine
should i be sleeping?
no son of mine
you never understood
that i don’t need your help
don’t have to save me from myself
or take me out to prove
that i should live my life like you
as i ask a simple question
cuts me off with his reply
he’s been practicing for decades
and i am listening this time
he flows in and out of riddles
stories change without the wine
but at least he seems much clearer
on how it feels to be my size
ten years older and i’ve finally found my pride
but this old man comes rolling home to die
old feelings make it hard to decide
just what it means to me
just what it means to me
ten years older and i’ve finally found my pride
but this old man comes rolling home to die
old feelings make it hard to decide
just what it means to me
just what it means to me
just what it means to me
just what it means to me
