The Answer

[Verse 1] If I can't crawl inside of you I'm laughing with a broken face I stumble across my self-esteem But to picture the pleasure is making me want my space Understand that God wrapped you like a bow But in my head, there's some shelves that need cleaning From basement to ceiling, control If what you're seeing is an open book That's great 'cause I'm an open book But I'm real shy Now there's a part of me seeking And desperately needing to open up That's strange 'cause I'm an open book, a confused boy [Pre-Chorus] I'm an automatic steeple for depressed and lonely people My heart, while in its cage Give and not receive a thing But the only funny thing: I don't know how to give myself advice [Chorus] And I've got this post-traumatic thing This tattoo of a ring around my wedding finger And that's where I want to state this claim That I've got to learn to live and dream Before I go and get myself in love, in love Before, before, before I go and get myself in love [Verse 2] There's Zoloft, Welbutrin There's Paxil that's proven, no side effects But the rest left unnamed 'Cause they worked like a charm on me But when your savings is drying You can't stop from crying You've got to suck it up You're not her buttercup You're not her favorite book [Pre-Chorus] I'm an automatic steeple for depressed and lonely people My heart, while in its cage Give and not receive a thing But the only funny thing: I don't know how to give myself advice [Chorus] And I've got this post traumatic thing This tattoo of a ring around my wedding finger And that's where I want to state this claim That I've got to learn to live and dream Before I go and get myself in love, in love Before, before, before I go and get myself in love
