lyrics
the camels back
so you wanna know.......what’s on my mind
been locked in a shell been closed........for a long long time
so you wanna know.....just how i feel
been listening to the voice within.....but i don’t know if it’s real
and i’ve been.....practicing the answers
and hoping that they’re right....hiding from shadows...that i cast in the night
well i smile.....to hide the pain inside
your frustrations.....well they’re justified
while i try so hard......to communicate
cats’ got my tongue......and i hope it’s.....not too late
i hold the straw....that could break.....the camels back
can’t believe that i.....nearly threw it.....all away
