Red Wanting Blue - Are You Listening? lyrics

Our conversation piece for the empty-handed My life has not worked out the way I've planned Problems have all ended The answers are all stranded And the crumbling fortune cookie called my life I need some space where someone I can hold Anyone at all And lock ourselves inside Things will never change 'Cause no one has meaning for words for long to fizz Better be brave 'Cause no one cares Are you listening? Drunk and standing still as another year ends Green to red to brown to white and brown to green again Epidemics have demanded all solutions be abandoned And Hollywood's fighting for the rights to make the film And media will all inflate And critics are sure to hate And I'm outside waiting in line Things will never change 'Cause no one has meaning for words for long to fizz Better be brave 'Cause no one cares Are you listening? The sun surrounds Let's do the drill I need some space Where I can shed this skin And turn my outsides in And lock myself inside Things will never change 'Cause no one has meaning for words for long to fizz Better be brave 'Cause no one cares Are you listening? Are you there? Are you there? Are you there? Are you there? Are you listening?
