Can't you tell me what it means? I've been without for so long I've been without and you get me wrong I've been without for so long Deep, deep, deep desire to fly away Can't get much higher than a falling stone That's been thrown from a bridge Scream, scream, scream about The lack of purpose in my life That seems to magnify a scary sense of doubt And tomorrow, when it breaks Will I have the strength to face Another stupid, silly scene? Can't you tell me what it means? I've been without for so long I've been without and you get me wrong I've been without for so long All the feelings I scorned All the bridges I burned You'd think a grown man would have learned To shield his eyes from the light Face his demons in the night And be sane again by morning light Sweet morning light Sweet morning light Yeah Yeah I'd like to pride myself on being a man who gets by in the end When all I'm left is circumstance and a chance to make amends Just a little self respect because the smile makes the man, you know I've been without for so long I've been without and you get me wrong I've been without for so long I've been without and you get me wrong Chance to make amends 'Cause the smile makes the man, you know
