Lyrics
Neither/Nor
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Da-da-da-da-da-da, da-doo, doo-doo
Doo-doo
When I was a little boy
I'd scream at vague misty nights
Yet breathe out smoke with no fire
I’d become one with what I was scared of
I fell in love with the in-between
Coloring in the margins
Yet the romance of the undefined
Was a threatening lie in their eyes
They say, "Oh, who is he?"
Nobody
"Hello, who is he?"
Nobody
I'm not at peace with dying alone
But I'm not at war either
No, I am planted on the shore knowing
The ashen tide may or may not rise
’Cause in the valley of the sure
You cannot be neither/nor
You're fated to pick a door
Only the lonely are lukewarm
They say, "Oh, who is he?"
Nobody
"Hello, who is he?"
Nobody
Yeah
Yeah
Ah, yeah
Hey
Is it a ghost?
Is it a plane?
Is it a shiver down your spine?
Is it delusion?
Is it confused?
Is it contusion of a hard-earned truth?
No, it's nobody
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
