Todd Nichols - Stories I Tell lyrics

Don't give me answers or I would refuse 'Yes' is a word for which I have no use And I wasn't looking for Heaven or Hell Just someone to listen to stories I tell What is a blessing and what is a dream? Caught between portraits and none's what it seems Why is it some people expect there's a change When I feel I'm a part of something I can't see? And I feel the same Don't offer questions or I will retreat Fame is a cancer and ego its seed And I wasn't looking for Heaven or Hell Just someone to listen to stories I tell Do we ever wonder? Did you ever care? Stories I tell Stories I tell Stories I tell Subtle salvation in poems and prose Hiding our heads in some shadow of home And I wasn't looking for wreaths or for bells Just someone to listen to stories I tell Stories I tell Stories I tell
