Five For Fighting Nobody Lyrics

Nobody Lyrics

Take off your shoes... Take off yourself
Take off your rented mental
health
Take off your raincoat... settle down
Take off your nightmare and
your frown
There is a place for you to go
To see another ringer in a rock
show
Take my pretense for a time
Cause I want to say to you

I'm
nobody without you...buddy
My long lost friend

If you're not here to
hear me scream
Am I silent like a dream
Where all the dragons are my
friends
Each night we meet our bitter ends
Do I need you to make me
real
Like Wheeler spinning his own wheel
Quantum strings within my
brain
Popping sanities insane

I'm nobody without you...buddy
My
long lost friend

Not everybody has a brain
Not everybody's going
sane
Not everybody wishes well
Not everybody's heaven's hell
Sometimes
there's someone to blame
Sometimes a place for shame
Sometimes good's
better than bad
Sometimes good's better than bad
Sometimes good's better
than bad
Sometimes you're better than me

Heaven fell on herself
tonight
As the devil met me in the wishing well
And in that moment I
found myself knowing
That in the end it's just about you and me
Nothing
smaller or larger
Though dragons are good for the soul
Nothing can be
better than baring yourself for another...
Open for scrutiny, ridicule, and
indulgence
Therein lies the balls, and the mind, and the heart...
As fear
is truly the Mindkiller...
When nothing is left...
Everything is
gained...
You see I wish I was a poet
But I know as we go round and
round
Though endings are never ever happy
It's the happy moments along
the way
That in the end
Make it...ok...
