The Serious Kind Lyrics

Was it something we asked you?
Did the questions overwrought elude you?
Now it's down to two
Did the questions exclude you?
Too late to resubmit now
Was it something I asked you?
Did I stutter?
Did my words elude you?
Did I exploit the open ends and destroy any trace of dignity?
Keep it underground
Keep any memory of us buried underground

Stop wasting your time towing the line when you feel compelled
So hard to define what's yours and what's mine
Oh, I can't tell
Did you really think we'd consider those of you straddling the line?
Are you the serious kind?
Do you regret you signed?
We'll make haste that you wait and be vague every time
And we can't help you at all
Holes in the walls are provided for those of you straddling the line
Stop wasting your time towing the line when you feel compelled
So hard to define what's yours and what's mine
Oh, I can't tell
Are the holes in the walls necessary?
Whoever's straddling the line can't be the serious kind
So forget you signed
We will make haste that you wait and be vague every time
We can't help you at all
But it's yours if you speak with conviction and if you keep towing the line
If you're the serious kind, keep me in mind
I'll make haste that you wait and be vague every time
I cannot help you at all
Do you really think I'd consider anyone straddling the line forever?
