lyrics

I've been digging for diamonds when the world is only full of coal
I've been shooting in the stands when there's no-one guarding the goal
I've been trying to drive when there's not a drop left in my tank
I've been booking a cruise on a liner that already sank.

I've been drinking from a cup that I already poured down the sink
I'd been hoping for seared but the meat is already pink

Curious, I'm curious, where did life go?
Is it just me?
Tints on my specs, a glint in my eye, glare on the screen, but why?

Been calling your number hoping you will answer one day
I've been dreaming up the words that I'm longing to hear you say.

Curious, I'm curious, where did love go?
Was it just me?
Tints on my specs, a glint in my eye, glare on my screen, doits in my eye.

Your sister just called and told me delete ya from my phone
Then your father called and said he's gonna come and break every bone

Curious, I'm curious, where should I go?
That just leaves me.
Tints on my specs, black in my eye, glare from your friends, doits in my eye.

Am I mad or am I blind?
Am I cruel or am I kind?
If I'm lost how do I find
The way home to my mind.

Is it just me? Or you?

Tints on my specs, a dead fish's eye, glare on my screen, doits in my eye
