When a fire starts in the hull
How much time do you have before it spreads to the deck?
When a fire starts in the hull
How much time do you have before it spreads to the deck?
Minutes?
Hours?
What time is it anyway?
How do you tell your family
That you wanna quit school and just play with your band?
When a fire starts burning
How much time do you have before it burns itself out?
And why do I feel like I'm choking lately?
What am I doing here?
Why do I feel like I'm choking lately?
What am I looking for?
Maybe school or maybe love
Or maybe none of the above is the answer
Maybe for once I'll really try
Or fuck it all and just get high?
Cuz that's an answer
Feels like an answer
And who do I wanna be?
Question twenty three

A ship can be from the shore before it loses its signal?

Cuz that's an answer
That's an answer
Maybe I'll practice my guitar
Or read a book or steal a car and steal the answer
I'll get a job and I'll get paid
Or get a girlfriend and get laid and get the answer
I'll join the army, go to war
Give up my smokes or smoke some more, I need an answer
Move to the village, shave my head
Wind up happy, wind up dead
Wind up in debt, wind up in love or maybe none of the above
Is the answer
Maybe it's ok that I don't have a plan
And I don't have a clue
I'm nineteen that doesn't mean
That I should know exactly what I wanna do, right?
I'm nineteen and that doesn't mean
That I should know what I wanna do
And I've got time to make mistakes
Make up my mind
And I've got time enough to find out all the answers
But I am scared and I'm afraid
That a decision won't get made
And I'll be like this forever
I need help
Need extra help to find the answers
What's the answer?
I don't know, I don't know
I don't know, I don't know
I don't know
I don't, I don't know
When a fire starts in the hull
How much time do you have before it spreads to the deck?
