Could it be i'm alive after all this?
Picking pennies off the floor with my cold cold hands
Look at me, no hands aint it cool yeah
Look at her falling out of a taxi cab
If you really want some understanding
You will find it can be quite frustrating
If you really want to understand it
You will learn it can be quite demanding
You and me trying hard to remember
How we ever started out with our sights so high
Looking down, seeing your yellow fingers
And if you don't understand then at least ask why
If you really want some understanding
You will learn it can be quite frustrating
If you really want to understand it
You will learn it can be quite demanding
Could it be i'm alive after all this?
Picking pennies off the floor with my cold hands
Look at me, no hands aint it cool yeah
Look at her falling out of a taxi cab
If you really want some understanding
You will learn it can be quite frustrating
If you really want to understand it
You should talk to mr understanding
