blues traveler - battle of someone lyrics
well, i love no one and i don’t care who knows
don’t care if you’re far away
don’t give a d-mn if you’re close
i’m a vacant distraction of a broken old man
i lack shape or color
not even gray or even tan
i’d hate all i see but it makes me too tired
i’m much more at home, when left uninspired
so d-mn me to h-ll, and resist if you must
but lower your eyes once, and i’ll emerge from the dust
–
for i am nothing
yes i am nothing
yes i am nothing,
and i love no one
–
well, i love everyone, i am filled with delight
i understand all your feelings i don’t see from wrong or right
i’m the look in your eyes when you’re telling the truth
i’m the wisdom of age, and the beauty of youth
i am shape, substance, color, darkest black, palest white
speckled gold ringing mirror, sharp soft and bright
i’m rage, p-ssion, laughter, and the need to know why
come sample all my riches, i’m pure stimuli
–
for i am everything
yes i am everything
yes i am everything,
and i love everyone
[under the sun]
–
well, i can only love someone, i am just a person
my father loved my mother, and i am her son
the preceding verses are the halves of my soul
i’m just the battlefield, and that is my role
there’s a tug-of-war between what i can and can’t feel
the inevitable compromise determines the real
the equation the reason for my being here
the struggle resulting in my invention of the tear
–
for i’m only something
yes i’m only something
yes i’m only something
and i can only love someone
–
and it’s the best i can do,
it’s the very best i can do
you’re probably someone else
so perhaps i love you
perhaps you’ll love me too
perhaps you’ll love me too
perhaps you’ll love me too
be doo be doo…
skoodly ooodly ag be doo (etc
