There's an old man holding a candycane,
and it isn't even christmas.
He see's a note in the obituary that his last friend has died.

There's an infant clinging to his overweight mother in the cold
as they go shopping for cigarettes,
and she spends her last dollar on a bottle of vodka for tonight.

And I guess it struck a nerve,
like I had to squint my eyes,
you can never get out the line of sight,
like a barren winter day,
or a patch of unburnt green,
like a tragic real dream,
I guess it struck a nerve.

Everyday I wander in the negative disposition
as I am bombarded by superalatives,
realizing very well that I am not alone.
introverted I look to tommarow for salvation,
but I'm thinking alturistically.
and a wave of overwhelming doubt turns me to stone.

And I guess it struck a nerve,
like I had to squint my eyes
sent the murmur through my heart,
like a magic speeding clock,
or a cancer in our cells,
a collision in the dark.
I guess ut struck a nerve.

I try to close my eyes,
but I cannot ignore the stimuli.
If there's a purpose for our souls,
it remains a secret to me,
don't ask me to justifty my life.

Cause,

I guess it struck a nerve (it struck a nerve)
like I had to squint my eyes
you can never get out of the line of sight
like a magic speeding clock,
or a cancer in our cells,
a collsion in the dark,
I guess it struck a nerve.
