lyrics

To tell you what you mean to me
Unbridled, unrestrained
To question my philosophy
No arguments remain

I can't take on this problem
Without some ambiguity
I can't tell you I'm dying
It's not part of my philosophy
What if I could be normal
Like everyone else
What if I die trying
Trying not to be myself

Then am I living
Or slowly dying

To count on all my fingertips
The reasons I've to live
Were once outweighed by memories
Of the love to you I'd give

But once a day's a memory
Its home is in the past
So out of all I now adore
I count the memories last

I can't take on this problem
Without some ambiguity
I can't tell you I'm dying
It's not part of my philosophy
What if I could be normal
Like everyone else
What if I die trying
Trying not to be myself

Then am I living
Or just existing

Is it living or just existing
If living means a mask
Is it dying or is it trying
If dying means taking it off

Then am I living
Or just performing

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
