Inquisition

Ask me,

ask me again.

Ask me again if I care.

Ask me again if I’m there.

Push me for answers

that I cannot give.

I’m just trying to live.

 

Ask me.

Ask me again.

Have I gone

and run off with the wind?

Am I lost out at sea,

without a friend?

Ask me.

Ask me again.

 

Ask me.

Ask me again.

Am I too far gone?

Was I gone all along?

Was my smile just a way

of hiding my pain?

Ask me.

Ask me again.

 

Ask me,

and I’ll tell you it’s true,

if I

ever really

loved you.

Did I lie?

Did I cheat?

Did I steal?

Did I stray?

Ask me.

Ask me again.

 

I’ve been out losing

my mind to the game.

Striving and fighting for gain.

I’ve done a whole lot of wrong

along the way,

so ask me,

ask me again.

 

I’ve been trying to be

all that I can.

Returned from the sea,

riding the wind.

I’ve trying to be

what I’ve never been,

so ask me,

ask me again.

 

I’m not the same man

that I was back then,

so ask me;

ask me again.
