Obvious Question
Suzanne Vega
[Verse 1]
I am sitting over here
The line is safety drawn
The obvious question is
How long does this go on?
[Verse 2]
Alcohol danced upon his nerves
Played upon his skin
Made him mad inside
Broke everything within
[Bridge]
And now it does the same to me
In needlepoints of fire
Wreathed around my neck
The spirits take the man
And leave behind a wreck
[Verse 1]
I am sitting over here
The line is safety drawn
The obvious question is
How long does this go on?
