For James

For James

(Kirk McLeod)

And this is for James

A guy I thought would be ahead of everyone else

And this is for James

Now I'm so surprised he's blown it for all but himself

And it seems impossible to imagine

And I scream when he's doing things he knows are wrong

He says it's all just circumstantial pieces

To a puzzle that was meant to make us

Crazy and not quite mislead us

To the point of sacrificing

Everything we love

This is for James

This is for James

And this is for James

I still can hear him say that everything's black or it's white

And this is for James

Now I wonder if he still believes he was right

And I see him talking to his reflection

And it seems so strange to me to see him cry

Says we're all just isolated cases

With an ocean full of lost emotion

That drowns our souls in their confusion

So pardon him for his intrusion

Into our daily lives

Cause I don't know

And I can't see

And I'm not sure

Just where this all will lead

And this is for James

A guy I used to think he was a little bit better than me

And this is for James

Now I wonder if he's really no different than me

And this is for James

A guy I used to think he'd be a little bit better than me

And this is for James

Now I'm sure of it he's really no different than me

And this is for James

And this is for James

And this is for James

And this is for James

Wah-ah-oh, Wah-ah-oh, Wah-ah-oh, Wah-ah-oh-hah

Hah-ah-oh, Hah-ah-oh, Hah-ah-oh, Hah-ah-oh

Hah-ah-oh, Hah-ah-oh, Hah-ah-oh, Hah-ah-hey-ay-ay
