Is there really anything you can say about me
Is there ever anything anyone can do
When you put your loving arms about me
Is it around my shoulders or my throat
Is it to show you love or that you own
Is for my pleasure or to hold me down
Can anyone else feel the frustration
Does anyone know what it’s all about
Feeling like the candle someone just blew out
Are there any answers in these empty days
Or are all the questions left like lonely hearts
Seeking always for their perfect partner
Grasping at strangers in the dark
Waking to the morning song bird
Promising a brand new tomorrow
Changing forever yesterday
Living with ourselves and turning away
