Oh brother I can't I can't get through

I've been trying hard to reach you, ‘cause i don't know what to do

Oh brother I can't  believe it's true

I'm so scared about the future and I wanna talk to you

Oh I wanna talk to you



You could take a picture of something you see

In the future where will I be?

You could climb a ladder up to the sun

Or write a song nobody had sung

Or do 

Something that's never been done



Are you lost or incomplete?

Do you feel like a puzzle, you can't find your missing piece?

Tell me how you feel

Well I feel like they're talking in a language I don't speak

And they're talking it to me



So you take a picture of something you see 

In the future where will I be?

You could climb a ladder up to the sun

Or write a song nobody had sung

Or do

Something that's never been done

Do

Something that's never been done



So you don't know where you're going and you wanna talk

And you feel like you're going where you've been before

You'll tell anyone who'll listen, but you feel ignored

Nothing's really making any sense at all

Let's talk

Let's talk

Let's talk

Let's talk
