Always a riddle in the world she says
Always a riddle inside my head
Always a thing to wonder
the way we come to be

Oh it's a big old place for me,
it's a big old world indeed
Everyone is killing me
and everything conspires

Oh in dreams I have watched it spin
See a violent crack of atoms
were all that comes in

Oh in dreams I have lain in sin

Just to be the cracked
and the cared for

How can I ask,

ask for more?

Always a riddle in the world she says
Always a riddle inside my head
Always a thing to wonder
in the way come to be
Oh it's a big old world for me
It's a big old world indeed
Kicking my heels and wondering
how I've been here so long

Oh in dreams
I have watched it spin
See a violent crack of atoms
were all that comes in

Oh in dreams I saw Aesop's kin
Just a carcass of a man,
I belong inside his skin

Where to, where to begin?

I live alone now,

I live alone in life
with out you here

I may be troubled

but I'm gracious in defeat

Oh I may be troubled

but I'm gracious in defeat
