Don't give me answers for i would refuse

yes is a word for which i have no use

And i wasn't looking for heaven or hell

Just someone to listen to stories i tell

Now what is a blessing and what is a dream

Caught between portraits and none's what it seems

And why is it people expect there's a change

When i feel i'm a part of something i can't see

I feel the same

Now don't ask me questions or i will retreat

Fame is a cancer and ego its seed

Now i wasn't looking for heaven or hell

Just someone to listen to stories i tell

Do we ever wonder

And do you ever care

Subtle salvation in poems we know

Hiding our heads in a shadow of home

Now i wasn't looking for wreaths or for bells

Just someone to listen to stories i tell

Stories i tell
