James Wolpert - Portraiture Same Old Questions Lyrics

Watched it all flash before my eyes
Getting born in the sun again
Stripped of all pretense and disguise
What was I doing? Where was I going?

What was my goal what was my prize?
I can't recall, and that feels so good
What is this place? Is this my life?
Can it please go on?
Because I feel alright

When we're in your car together it feels like we're at church
And I feel better than I ever used to be

When we're in your room together it feels like we're at church
And I see clearer that I ever used to see

I've slept on the basement floor with the long-hairs and the play-fairs
And in the lap of luxury with the high-rollers and the voltaires
I've moved through the golden country
and wore holes in my shoes that let the squalls and the blizzards in

Be my priestess
You're holier than me
Why you gonna stick around
Because we can run for free
we can run for free

Right on the edge of everything I could have ever wanted
And what'd it get me? I kissed the queen I sipped the cure
Are these the answers have death and tragedy delivered me?
Is this the springtime?
Is this my father's ring I'm wearing?

Be my priestess
You're holier than me
Why you gonna stick around
Because we can run for free
we can run for free

Am I sure this is how I wanna love?
Am I sure this is how I wanna love?
Am I sure this is who I want to hold close in the cold cold night?

Am I sure this is what I wanna do?
And I sure this is what I wanna do?
Who needs you
I can run for free
I can run for free

Watched it all flash before my eyes
