Deceit and lies, is all I've taken
Let me surface to breath
No sacrifice, no inspiration
Can you understand me?

Why should I ask you,
Why should I worry?
You never worry about me
Why should I ned you,
Why don't I let you go?
And let my heartaches run free

I thought I knew the meaning of life
Now I'm asking you why
I thought I knew the meaning of life
Now open wide

What's on my mind, so many questions
Though the answers I can guess
You slip away shelter from confrontation
Look my life is such a mess

I thought I knew the meaning of life
Now I'm asking you why
I thought I knew the meaning of life
Now open wide
