LYRICS

"Is This Thing On?"

When all the things that you've been thinking
has you so confused and so unglued
your head is spinning

well we've all felt the same inside
I've been on that ledge countless times
and I know what that feels like

your on your own can't make it through this world all alone
is this thing on at all?
your on your own can't make it through this world all alone
is this thing on at all?

when all your friends don't have the answers
and you're so convinced that inch by inch
they've turned to strangers

we've all seen the different sides
no one hears even though you've talked all night
and I know what you feel like

your on your own can't make it through this world all alone
is this thing on at all?
your on your own can't make it through this world all alone
is this thing on at all?
your on your own can't make it through this world all alone
is this thing on at, this thing on at all?

can we really measure if we're any better
than that skyline that goes on and on forever on and on?

your on your own can't make it through this world all alone
is this thing on at all?
your on your own can't make it through this world all alone
is this thing on at all?
your on your own can't make it through this world all alone
is this thing on

and a race against time i know what that feels like
but your on your own now
is this thing on

it's the countless times that you talked all night
but your on your own now
is this thing on at all?

your on your own can't make it through this world all alone
is this thing on at, this thing on at all?

your on your own can't make it through this world all alone
oh yeah, yeah. YEAH!
