Lyrics for Neither/Nor

When I was a little boy I'd screamed at vague misty nights Yet breathe out smoke with no fire I'd become one of what I was scared of I fell in love with the in-between Coloring in the margins Yet the romance of the undefined Was a threatening lie in their eyes They say, "Oh, who is he?" Nobody "Hello, who is he?" Nobody I'm not at peace with dying alone But I'm not at war either No, I am planted on the shore knowing The ashen tide may or may not rise 'Cause in valley of the sure You cannot be neither, nor You're fated to pick a door Only the lonely are lukewarm They say, "Oh, who is he?" Nobody "Hello, who is he?" Nobody Is it a ghost? Is it a plane? Is it a shiver down your spine? Is it delusion? Is it confused? Is it contusion of a hard-earned truth? No, it's nobody Nobody Nobody Nobody Nobody Nobody Nobody Nobody
