THE BOXER

from Demalgamation by Goodbye The Band

/

lyrics

I exist because I
picked a life out of the catalog
that came in the mail

Now I'm warmed by fire
And the walls around me
Keep me from the waves of terror

It was not some magic
It was never fated
But here I am protected, angel

I wait in a rain-darkened forest
I wait in a rain-darkened forest
I wait in a rain-darkened forest
I wait in a rain-darkened forest

Felt another future
One that's filled with heartache
That's the one I ran away from

Kept some songs as brainwaves
Left the words on paper
To live a life that wasn't lonely

But an eternal dreamer
is an eternal dreamer
And doesn't want the world in front of him

Now I'm warmed by fire
And the walls around me
Keep me focused on the fire

I was saved because I
picked a path out of the catalog
that came in the mail

It was not some magic
It was never fated
But here I am protected, angel

I can't shake the feeling
There's another version
Who went and lived a life of wonder

I wait in a rain-darkened forest
I wait in a rain-darkened forest
I wait in a rain-darkened forest
I wait in a rain-darkened forest

I'm amazed because I
didn't think that you could
split us up and leave me stranded

Oh the endless sorrow
Oh the eternal heartache
Here in beauty yet no angel
