Can't Swallow Lyrics

I thought I knew about it-
the way you shape the star.
The way you smile when it hurts.
I see no ending so far.
In need of an easy answer,
the mind is reaching for the sky
to guide it, die without it.
And, still, not wondering why.
Find me a sanctuary
to lock my senses in.
Just more than ordinary,
this feeling deep within.
I no longer hide behind my hollow.
‘Cause I've got'em six inside and can't swallow.
You hope to die an old man
and, now, you’ve reached the end.
Could it be that you’re dreamin’
the dream of someone else?
I never knew about it.
I knew it all along.
I guess I’ll die without it.
I guess it’s nothing wrong.
